PHP help
Simple problem I don't know how to fix.
I have a folder called includes where my php wrapper is. Now, I have another folder called seotools and I have a file in it. To add the wrapper to the file I use this code. And it doesn't work. I have always had a file structure where all my files are in the same www directory, no folder. But I need to be more organized now.
<?php include('/includes/wrapper.php'); ?>'
This is what the file tree looks like
www
Includes
----header.php
----footer.php
----navigation.php
----wrapper.php
Seotools
----index.php - this file needs the php wrapper

the / will make the root directory the root of the whole filesystem, not just your directory. You might want to find the full path, and then have the /blahblah after the full path. you could do ./ or just omit the leading slash, and it should work fine.

Now if I make the include code say this '../wrapper.php' I get this error
Warning: main(./includes/header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in c:\appserv\www\ieffective\includes\wrapper.php on line 1

The wrapper code looks like this
<div id="header.php"><?php include('./includes/header.php');?></div><div id="navigation.php"><?php include('./includes/navigation.php'); ?></div>

if you include a file, the relative paths are not retained from its inclusion directory, so you should make it this:
<div id="header.php"><?php include('../includes/header.php');?></div><div id="navigation.php"><?php include('../includes/navigation.php'); ?></div>
