how to include a file inside a model? - El Forum - 11-22-2011

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hello guys, I'm new to codeigniter and maybe my question is a bit stupid but..I cant understand how I can include a file inside a model.

Inside del model folder I've a subfolder named include and inside this I've some php file.

The structure is something like that:

-models

--mymodel.php

--include
---file.php
---file1.php


Inside mymodel.php how I can include the file.php?

I've heard that the relative path is allways the index.php, so I've tried:

include 'models/include/file.php'

but it seems not working.

I've tried to use base_url() and site_url() without any luck..

Can anyone help me?
