Hello
The problem I have when using include files is the path to different parts of the web site.

To Explain:

I have a header.inc file in an inc directory:

root
 |___inc
 |       |___header.inc
 |
 |___images
 |       |___topbar_01.gif
 |
 |___faq
        |___faq.php

In the header.inc file there is: 
<img name="topbar_01" src="images/topbar_01.gif" width=783 height=56>

now when I include this into the faq.php file I do not display the topbar_01.gif as the path to \
                topbar_01.gif is now
/root/faq/images/topbar_01.gif

I would like to be able to use a header.inc file so that I can update the entire site simply.

Is there a way I can specify the correct path when using an include file in this way?
I have tried to use some of the Environment Variables.

I find that I am having this problem when I am using a structured site. I would rather not \
place all files into the same directory

Thankyou for your reply,
Ivan
