Reproduce code: --------------- Say, there is the main script 'test.php' and two other files, 'a.inc' and 'b.inc' (in subdirs): File './test.php': <?php require_once( 'include/a/a.inc' ); ?> File './include/a/a.inc': <?php require_once( '../b.inc' ); echo 'a.inc '; ?> File './include/b.inc': <?php echo 'b.inc '; ?> Running 'test.php' fails. Expected result: ---------------- When a.inc include "../b.inc", it should reference from the location of ./include/a/a.inc, not the executing file, ./test.php. This happens on both Windows XP and UNIX (Red Hat Linux), and probably all other platforms (which I can't verify). This really hurt modularity. I know this is not consider a bug, but would you improve this please? (like adding a realtive_include() function would really be nice) Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '../b.inc' (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in XXXXX on line 4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33099&edit=1
