While I know putting a app into a folder was chiseled out of fine
scottish granite and carried upto the top of ben nevis by php newbies
many years ago - I dont think a folder is the best way to do it .

The fact a script is in a folder means certain instant problems if you
want to do certain things with .

Assuming a script doesnt have index.php and all the script files have a
filename prefix like phpgb_ then theres no chance of them clashing with
anything else and theres no real reason to continue using a folder for
the main script files .

While the script will have a app folder for various things - does it
make any sense not to use the root because of a single solitary file
called index.php .

phpgb_index.php is what I use and the method hasnt brought up a single
problem of any shape or description .


Gas lighting was once what everybody thought was the best way of doing
it until that darn new fangled electricity came along .
