On this particular problem it is an external server, owned by a
big popular ISP and is host for a company site. Meaning it is not
under my direct control.
I put a test html page up, with your
<?php
echo ini_get('include_path');
?>
on it and got back:
..;e:\php
This a clue to fashioning a "global" path address? What now?
(I tried various things with this but I feel like a monkey on a
typewriter. I suppose I could ask the ISP administrators what
path would always work? But ever tried communicating with big
ISPs? In a way, it is not the end of the world as I can just
ensure the paths are tailored to where the html files concerned
are. Seems a little inelegant though!)
