How about I give you a different way... In your Apache VirtualHost use:
php_value include_path .:/path/to/webroot/parent/includes/
Then you can just use:
include("file.php");
From anywhere and it will include it from the current folder (if found),
if not look in your /includes folder for it.
Anyway, you can do it by parsing $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] to get to the
parent, but it's much easier (and cleaner to read) by re-setting
include_path.
If you want to keep the current path you could do it using a single global
file which ini_set's the include_path to include the current include_path
and the new /includes folder. You could include that in your Apache
virtualhost using:
php_value auto_prepend_file /path/to/webroot/parent/includes/global.php
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Andy
