Another option is to define a base directory variable in a common file
that all pages include:
require('/path/to/base-paths.inc');
$phpbase = '/path/to/root/of/php/code/';
Then all includes are accessed by:
include($phpbase . 'file.php');
The advantage here is the option to have other common or global
variables defined in <base-paths.inc> that may not be related directly to PHP.
