[PHP] Newbie: Safe function call to a .inc file outside the web folder

[Graham Anderson]

I am relatively new to security....
Is the below reasonable safe ?
I have all of my main functions outside the web folder
I am including this function with every php script that accesses 
fonovisa.inc


function getBrain()
{
	$temp = explode('.', $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);  // returns 
'www.myserver.com'
        $size = count($temp);
        $server = $temp[$size -2]; // returns 'myserver'
        $brainPath = "/home/".$server."/includes/fonovisa.inc";

        require_once($brainPath);
}


is this ok ?
Any help is appreciated :)
