[thelist] PHP includes (how to call from subdir)

[j.d. welch]

sure, you can do it like that, but i think it's worth mentioning that
you can change the include_path directive per directory. in an
.htaccess file in your DocumentRoot, add something like:

php_value include_path=".:/path/to/my/includes:/some/other/path"

(the . indicating current directory) and you can forgo the relative
link nonsense.
