    If your code is running on multiple servers with different environments (locations from where your scripts run) the following idea may be useful to you:

    a. Do not give absolute path to include files on your server.
    b. Dynamically calculate the full path (absolute path)

    Hints:
    Use a combination of dirname(__FILE__) and subsequent calls to itself until you reach to the home of your '/index.php'. Then, attach this variable (that contains the path) to your included files.

    One of my typical example is:

    <?php
    define    ('__ROOT__', dirname(dirname(__FILE__)));
    require_once(    __ROOT__.'/config.php');
    ?>

    instead of:
    <?php require_once('/var/www/public_html/config.php'); ?>

    After this, if you copy paste your codes to another servers, it will still run, without requiring any further re-configurations.

    Be careful when using include_once and require_once for files that return a value:

    fiddle2.php
    <?php
    return "Some String";

    fiddle.php
    <?php
    $s     = require_once('fiddle2.php');
    echo     "\n" . $s;
    $s = require_once('fiddle2.php');
    echo     "\n" . $s;

    /* output
    Some String
    1
    */

    The second time require_once occurs, it returns 1 because the file has already been included.

    1 - "require" and "require_once" throw a fatal error if the file is not
    existing and stop the script execution

    2 - "include" and "include_once" throw a warning and the execution
    continues

    3 - "require_once" and "include_once" as their names suggests ,
    they will not include the file if the file was already included with
    "require", "require_once", "include" or "include_once"

    try the following code:

    create a file called "index.php"

    <?php

    require "first.php"; // this will include the file

    include_once "first.php"; // this will not as it was included using "require"

    require_once "first.php"; // this will not as it was included using "require"

    ?>

    and another file that is called "first.php" and write the following header

    -------------------------------

    <h1>Hello every one</h1>

    --------------------------------

    i hope this will help you

    "require_once" and "require" are language constructs and not functions. Therefore they should be written without "()" brackets!
