but it only works if the raw code in relative.path.php is pasted directly
into the elements.php page? is c:/site/inc in the php.ini as one of the
include_paths? have you tried storing $relativePath as
$_SERVER['RELATIVE_PATH'] in the site.cfg.php and then echoing out the first
test again to see if the results are more favorable? you'd just change the
"rel path: " . $_SERVER['RELATIVE_PATH'] line for the test.

let me know how it goes. btw, are you still running this test in prepend
mode? it may be that the prepended relative.path.php is not being parsed by
php which would explain why you could require it in prepend mode yet still
not have $relativePath defined.
