If you upload your index.htm file into the /dir folder and it shows then this is your document root folder. I would say if you place something in /myname then that would be outside your document root. -----Original Message----- From: Tom Malone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2001 11:40 PM To: PHP Users Subject: [PHP] Putting Include files outside of document root I know this will sound like a dumb question to most, but I am new to *nix OS's - If my document root is something like /home/myname/dir/ (as per phpinfo()), and I put my include files in /home/myname/includes/, is that actually outside of the document root, or is anything under /home/myname/ actually the document root?
