Arh, yes, but it has the consequence that you need to use the absolute
path for every include. Which I think has its drawbacks.

The other way, you can actually just include "somefile" and php/apache
will find it. 

If we say your access is to a tree like this;

lgdc
lgdc/public_html
lgdc/php_include

then you could maintain the include files yourself, while making sure that
they could never accidently get served to the public.

It's a matter of taste, I suppose.

Oh well, all operating systems crash constantly right? This is normal, right? 
It has to be, Microsoft couldn't be so popular if their OS was so bad, could 
they?	   
  Yes they could, and they are. And if you fail to realize it, it's your own 
damn fault.
