Assuming you don't have too many hosts, a better way to write this:

> $brainPath = "/home/".$server."/includes/fonovisa.inc";

is to use a switch statement to make sure $server is valid:

switch($server)
{
case 'yourserver':
case 'another':
case 'yetanother':
$brain_path = "/home/$server/includes/fonovisa.inc";
break;
}

Something like that. :-)
