Thanks! This talks about using a variable or any part of code to deduct the root folder. I've done this and my site is working fine, both locally on on remote. However, using any kind of code to deduct root folder and than use this when i call a .css file disable the property inspector. This is what i try to refrain from doing - no code for site root.

Yes i am aware of this and this is what i stated - the problem is only locally. Still, it was mentioned here that it should be possible to use the "/" even on the local site. What I am trying to achieve is: Not to alter any of my code when i upload to the webserver. Be able to use live view options in DW & inspect locally on a browser Still use root related paths to for style (css) files. The reason is that is I use a php code to generate the site root the css property inspector does not work in DW (ALT+cilck on the element)

I am opening the file under /_templates/page.php so teh root is one directory above <link href="../css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> this IS working <link href="/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> this is NOT working THANKS

Thanks, I have tried using / before the path but the file is not found. When i try to "view in browser" and then use the "inspect" option in chrome. i see that: "http://localhost/main.css" cannot be found. i guess this is because the root of the server is "c:/xampp/htdocs" and not "c:/xampp/htdocs/DnD_B4" On the actual website "/" in front will work but i need it to work on my local testing server as well without any script to find the root. How do I configure aliases?

Ok, I simply have 2 sites in DW, each points to a different Local Testing server folder: Server Folder: C:\xampp\htdocs\test1 (DnD_B4 in the image) Server Folder: C:\xampp\htdocs\test2 When i use the testing sever i want the root to be correct for each site so that root relative files will be found. c:\xampp\htdocs\test1 => root should be "http://localhost/test1 c:\xampp\htdocs\test2 => root should be "http://localhost/test2

I guess than that it not the "include", it is the actual link i use. To make sure I always get the right path I use: <link href="<?php echo siteRoot()?>/css/bootstrap.rtl.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> How can i set the css relative to my site root? When I try this: <link href="<?php echo siteRoot()?>/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> The styles are respected but I can't see the properties. When is use this: <link href="/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> The properties are not respected and there are no styles to my page (same for "css/main.css"). Now the strange thing it that when I use both: <link href="<?php echo siteRoot()?>/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <link href="/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> The styles are respected andi can see the properties. Can you explain this? Perhaps it has to do with the fact your site is under the root of the testing server?

OK, I see the point - it sure saves space. Are you sure, in your case, that wamp cannot alter anything. After all you will be uploading these files to the remote live server.

Is there a way to use 'ALT+click" to show css properties in php files? When I ALT+left click an element, on a php file with include(...) I only see: Is this one of the limitations of working with php files?

You are right - the latter shows a different testing server with the same structure as the on on message#23. instead of DnD_Responsive it is DnD_B4. i want to know if i set it properly in regard to the fact that i did not specify the actual root for the xampp folder. I create a new folder for my testing server, in this case under xampp/htdocs/DnD_Responsive I set the settings for the testing server as sows on message #27 Ta

Are you sure this is how it works? I have 3 testing servers under xampp/htdocs. i created the folders DnD_B4, DnD_Responsive & TEST myself and specified it in DW i can't move all of them under the same root? or am i doing something wrong when specifying the path in DW?

Well, yes. Still the initial problem is now solved with the combination of 2 functions to generate root. 1 for PHP and 1 for html though i think 1 is enough for the actual web server, for my testing xampp server i need 2: function phpRoot() { $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; $docRoot = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; if(strpos($host, "dnd-production.com") !== false){ #$site_Root = "http://$host"; $site_Root = $docRoot; } else { $uri = explode("/", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //print_r($uri); $site_Root = "$docRoot/$uri[1]/"; } return $site_Root; } //phpRoot function htmlRoot() { $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; if(strpos($host, "dnd-production.com") !== false){ $site_Root = "http://$host"; } else { $uri = explode("/", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //print_r($uri); $site_Root = "//$host/$uri[1]/"; } return $site_Root; } //htmlRoot I'll open anew thread for the other question.

Ok, I manages to solve this, so i hope as follows: I have different root for html links and as follows: function phpRoot() { $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; $docRoot = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']; if(strpos($host, "dnd-production.com") !== false){ #$site_Root = "http://$host"; $site_Root = $docRoot; } else { $uri = explode("/", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //print_r($uri); $site_Root = "$docRoot/$uri[1]/"; } return $site_Root; } //phpRoot function htmlRoot() { $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; if(strpos($host, "dnd-production.com") !== false){ $site_Root = "http://$host"; } else { $uri = explode("/", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //print_r($uri); $site_Root = "//$host/$uri[1]/"; } return $site_Root; } //htmlRoot This is working now though i do not understand why i need to use 2 different 'roots'? Now, I have another small issue regarding the html links and the "Visual media queries bar" When i use this: <link href="../css/mediaQuery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> I see the Visual media queries bar. When i use this: <link href="<?php echo siteRoot()?>/css/mediaQuery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> The css rules in the mediaQuery.css are applied but the Visual media queries bar is not shows. (I do press the button to show them) Any reason why? I also see the "mediaQuery.css" at the top of the panel as one of the open files and i can click it and see it's content.

Are you assuming all files are under the same site root? $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] points, in my case to "C:/xampp/htdocs" This is not the site root which is:"C:/xampp/htdocs/DnD_B4" But even if i add: include_once('/'.trim( $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'],' /').'/DnD_B4/_scripts/pageMake/menuItems.php'); I still get the same error. Are you sure this still works in new version pf DW? Perhaps it has to do with xampp configuration? And again... This works just fine: <link href="<?php echo siteRoot()?>/css/mediaQuery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> where siteRoot() is: function siteRoot() { $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; if(strpos($host, "dnd-production.com") !== false){ $site_Root = "http://$host"; } else { $uri = explode("/", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //print_r($uri); $site_Root = "//$host/$uri[1]/"; } return $site_Root; } //siteRoot

Thank you, I am using xampp testing server and there is no "shared/php" under the site root on the testing server neither on the remote one. i tried pasting your code and got an error regarding file not found. Again. i want to emphasis that i can get links to work relative to site root using the method i described above but it only works for html links, not php.

What is the "best practice" regarding these php includes in a site i am creating? I am now migrating my site to bootstrap 4 and considering using php includes instead of templates but i do have some problems with the links as you saw. Especially since pages my reside on different folders at different depths. I need something which will work for my testing server AND when i upload the real site without the modifying anything.

Ok, I but if I just use include, no template I get to path problems again. I may put php pages in different directories but i want to include files relative to the site root. simply putting "/" in front of the path does not work. site root, relative. <?php include("../../_scripts/nav.php") ?> is working but i'd rather not use it due to the problems i reported. <?php include("/_scripts/nav.php") ?> does not work even tough "/" should be treated as site root and _scripts dir is under site root. I tried to generate the site root like show below. This has been working for year both on my testing server and real server. i am using this so that i do not need to change anything when i upload to the server. $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; if(strpos($host, "dnd-production.com") !== false){ $site_Root = "http://$host"; } else { $uri = explode("/", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); //print_r($uri); $site_Root = "//$host/$uri[1]/"; } $file = $site_Root."/_scripts/nav.php"; i get this error: Warning: require_once(//localhost/mySite/_scripts/nav.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in To remove any doubt that my $site_Root is correct i can say that when i use it, in the same page, on html links it is working. This is working: <link href="<?php echo siteRoot()?>/css/mediaQuery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> So again, what is going on with php links???

could you test this on your side??? create a new php template file>new>new document>php template name it test.dwt.php in the new template, just add 3 require or include statement: <?php require_once('../aaa/test1.php'); require_once('../aaa/test2.php'); require_once('../aaa/test2.php'); ?> save and try to generate a new php from this template - do all the include point to the right path?

i also showed the file before it is saved and, in it, you can see that 2 files get the correct full path before saving and 1 file is left with the relative location as the template: 'file:///C|/My%20Doc/Google%20Drive/DnD/Bootstrap_4/_scripts/functions.php'; require_once '../_scripts/pageMake/menuItems.php'; require_once 'file:///C|/My%20Doc/Google%20Drive/DnD/Bootstrap_4/_scripts/pageMake/head.php'; can this be due to some problem regarding the "require" command with the php template? i never experienced this with html templates.
