include a file which is out side the folder which contains the code..

[mishrarajesh44]

hii all,
is it not possible to include a file which is outside the folder which contains the script file(where include( ) is used).
my problem is:

the file add.php uses the
include'../addressbook/image_upload.php' ;
and add.php has path like
addressbook/admin/add.php

by doing so i am getting the following error..


Warning: main(../addressbook/image_upload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/wwwuser/home.mishra.biz/addressbook/admin/add.php on line 65 Warning: main(): Failed opening '../addressbook/image_upload.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/hsphere/shared/apache/libexec/php4ext/php/') in /hsphere/local/home/wwwuser/home.mishra.biz/addressbook/admin/add.php on line 65

plese help me if u know..
thanks...

by doing:
include("../addressbook/image_upload.php");
would take you back to the address/ directory and then search for a sub directory named /adressbook/

dont forget by going back ONE directory from where you already are, you dont have to include the directory name; just the file name

try:

include("../image_upload.php");

hii markusun,
thanks that 'include' works well.. but i am facing another error..
see the error msg below..

Warning: copy(images/DSC00026.JPG): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/wwwuser/home.mishra.biz/addressbook/image_upload.php on line 15

and in line 15 the code is:

 $copy = copy($_FILES['imagefile']['tmp_name'], "$idir" . $_FILES['imagefile']['name']);
 

thanks...a lot..

It sounds like the directory images/ is not there.
