RTFM alex!

<?php

$times = substr_count($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'],"/");
$rootaccess = "";
$i = 1;

while ($i < $times) {
$rootaccess .= "../";
$i++;
}
include ($rootaccess."foo/bar.php");

?>

PHP: Select all

<?php
include(preg_replace("/(\/[\w]+)/i","../",$t)."foo/bar.php");
?>

You could even use $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]

[alexgeek]

doesn't that go to like:
C:\location\of\web\files
