Hi,

I'm using PHP 4.4.7. When I define a constant as

define("SITE_ROOT_DIR", dirname(__FILE__));

the result is the value ".". The real directory path should be "/home/
myaccount/web". So I tried

define("SITE_ROOT_DIR", realpath(dirname(__FILE__)));

on the advice of another, but now I'm getting an empty string. Any
ideas how to overcome this? I'd prefer not to hard code paths because
my development server path is different.

Thanks, - Dave
