[PHP] setting the document root path in linux

[tbt]

Hi

I'm a newbie to php and I'm using 

require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/includes/class.announcement.php"); 

to import pages in php. This works fine on a windows environment. However
when I move this application to a linux environment the files dont get
imported properly. This is because in a windows environment 
$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] returns c:/xampp/htdocs etc.
but in a linux environment returns /home/servers etc.

How can this be rectified so that the path is properly picked up in a linux
environment

[PHP] error messages

[tbt]

Hi

I'm a newbie to php and i would like to know a way of viewing runtime errors
on the browser. Currently when an error occurs nothing is displayed on the
browser. Is there any way of viewing all error messages on the browser
itself.

Thanks

I added the following lines to the top of my script but still no error
messages show up on the browser. 
When a php error occurs the entire page is still shown blank.

[PHP] Re: re[PHP] gister_globals

[tbt]

Hi

I have two php files as follows

session_register.php // sets the value of $refString


and

session_data.php // retrieves the value of $refString


This code works fine when register_globals is set to 'on'. But the hosting
site has set it to 'off' and I have no way of adding a .htaccess file. Is
there anyway to modify my php files so that it works correctly when
register_globals is set to 'off'. I only need the value of the variable
$refString accessible from all the php files.

Thanks
