PHP - Include From Another Folder

When I use require('../config.php'); It does not works on my machine but it works on shared hosting

Can someone help me what must be the issue?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Please bear with me, I have no real experience with PHP but am using it for the first time in a page for maintenance purposes.

One of the things I am trying to do is include a random page from within a certain folder (folder: 'modules/did-you-know').  Inside this folder there are currently three files named in this format 'did-you-know-###.php' - where ### is the page number.

I have no problems including the named page individually, but it is when randomising it where it causes errors.

The code I am using is the following:

Code: [Select]
<?php
            $i=0;
$myDirectory = dir("modules/did-you-know");
while($file=$myDirectory->read())
{
$array[$i]=$file;
$i++;
}
$myDirectory->close();

$num = count($array);
$random = rand(0, $num);

include "$array[$random]"; ?>

When I load the page, I get numerous errors, as follows:

Warning: include(..) [function.include]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/{USERNAME}/public_html/test2/index.php on line 103

Warning: include(..) [function.include]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/{USERNAME}/public_html/test2/index.php on line 103

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '..' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/{USERNAME}/public_html/test2/index.php on line 103

Warning: include(did-you-know-002.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/{USERNAME}/public_html/test2/index.php on line 103

Warning: include(did-you-know-002.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/{USERNAME}/public_html/test2/index.php on line 103

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening 'did-you-know-002.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/{USERNAME}/public_html/test2/index.php on line 103

Now, it's clear from the above that it is (at least sometimes) reading the files from within the 'did-you-know' directory, so not sure why I am getting these errors. (Especially the last one, as that would suggest an error to do with permissions, would it not?)

Line 103 is the "include" line.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I got this script:

But it give me error, file_get_contents cannot open stream.

I need to add the FTP connection with user/pass paramaters.

then look in set http url, to get the file contents(images) and transfer to ftp server location.

Can Anyone take alook and tell me if I am going down the right path and how to get there. Please

Code: [Select]
function postToHost($host, $port, $path, $postdata = array(), $filedata = array()) {
$data = "";
$boundary = "---------------------".substr(md5(rand(0,32000)),0,10);
$fp = fsockopen($host, $port);

fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.0\n");
fputs($fp, "Host: $host\n");
fputs($fp, "Content-type: multipart/form-data; boundary=".$boundary."\n");

// Ab dieser Stelle sammeln wir erstmal alle Daten in einem String
// Sammeln der POST Daten
foreach($postdata as $key => $val){
$data .= "--$boundary\n";
$data .= "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"".$key."\"\n\n".$val."\n";
}

// Sammeln der FILE Daten
if($filedata) {
$data .= "--$boundary\n";
$data .= "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"".$filedata['name']."\"; filename=\"".$filedata['name']."\"\n";
$data .= "Content-Type: ".$filedata['type']."\n";
$data .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary\n\n";
$data .= $filedata['data']."\n";
$data .= "--$boundary--\n";
}

// Senden aller Informationen
fputs($fp, "Content-length: ".strlen($data)."\n\n");
fputs($fp, $data);

// Auslesen der Antwort
while(!feof($fp)) {
$res .= fread($fp, 1);
}
fclose($fp);

return $res;
}

$postdata = array('var1'=>'today', 'var2'=>'yesterday');
$filedata = array(
'type' => 'image/png',
'data' => file_get_contents('http://xxx/tdr-images/images/mapping/dynamic/deals/spot_map')
);

echo '<pre>'.postToHost ("localhost", 80, "/test3.php", $postdata, $filedata).'</pre>';

I want to copy everything in templates/blue to the folder code/

However:

shell_exec("cp -r 'templates/blue' 'code'");

Creates a folder called blue inside code. I tried cp -r 'templates/blue/*' 'code', but that didn't do anything.

Any ideas?

Hi Guys.. Merry Christmas

Im kinda new to this fantastic world of PHP and i have a little problem i hope you can help me with.

Im trying to build a website where I use include() to genereate my content. On my index.php i have a menu which includes
content in a content div from external .php pages, my structure kinda goes like this.. (simplified)

site/
   index.php
   content/
       fronpage.php
       products.php
       contact.php

The HTML looks like this.

<div id="menu">
    <ul>
          <li><a href="index.php?page=frontpage">frontpage</a></li>
          <li><a href="index.php?page=products">frontpage</a></li>
          <li><a href="index.php?page=contact">frontpage</a></li>
    </ul>         
</div               

<div id="main">

<?php
     include('/content/'.$_GET['page'].'.php');
?>

</div>

This all works very fine, but my problem is, can I have a include inside an already included page?
I would like to have a menu on my products.php site, but that page is already included from above,
and i would like the menu on the products.php site to stay as the content from the nested include
changes with input from the /products folder.

my idea was something like this.

site/
   index.php
   content/
      frontpage.php
      products.php
      contact.php
      products/
         product1.php
         product2.php


the HTML on the index.php is the same as above and then i would add the include() on the
products.php page, so its kinda the same thing, but one inside the other.

HTML inside the products.php folder

<div id="sub_menu">
    <ul>
          <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li>
          <li><a href="#">frontpage</a></li>
    </ul>         
</div               

<div id="sub_main">

<?php
     include('/content/products'.$_GET['#'].'.php');
?>

</div>

I dont know how to link to the new files so they will be included while the first include still stays on the page.

Any of you know how and if this can be done? Or maybe at better way to do it?

Hope this made sense, my first PHP question

Thanks
