When do I use no slash / ./ or ../

[Guest Luhoozuher]

Forgive me for bumping an earlier post, but it seems I was getting extremely few views, and I couldn't expect to get help if no one is looking, right

In general CubeCart's system works fine for my needs. The fact that nearly everything is handled by index.php and cart.php works well enough. But I'm trying to implement a new feature on my site, and to accomplish that I'd like to use folders as opposed to GET values. Here's what I'm trying to do that's not working:

My cart is hosted at the top of my domain www.midnightflock.com. I'd like for the URL to the new stuff to be www.midnightflock.com/gamereviews/shadowrun. I've written a new site document in the admin panel that I would like to display when that url is typed in. So I've created index.php in /shadowrun to look like this:

<?php



  $_GET['act']= "viewDoc";

  $_GET['docId']= "10";

  

  include_once("../../includes/global.inc.php");

  

  include_once("../../index.php");



?>

I get an error like this:

Warning: main(/index.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in rootinfo/midnightflock.com/html/gamereviews/shadowrun/index.php on line 8

Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening '/index.php' for inclusion (include_path='serverstuff/php-4.4.7-1/share/pear') in rootinfo/midnightflock.com/html/gamereviews/shadowrun/index.php on line 8

I've aslo tried include_once($_glob['rootDir']."index.php"); include_once($_glob['rootRel']."index.php");. If I had to guess, I'd say it has something to do with the number of periods and slashes and I'm using to escape to higher directories, but perhaps it's something different than that. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

It seems I may have been wrong about the ../ being the problem. After a little digging I changed the script to

include($_SERVER['SITE_HTMLROOT']."/index.php");

However, I still get the same errors

Is what I'm trying to do not possible?
