[quote author="Tim Brownlaw" date="1400326802"]So if you only want to wonder up one level

One way is to use dirname(FCPATH); instead of FCPATH!
That'll take you up One Level and remember that it is a path!

But you'd could also use dirname(__FILE__) and create a new define based upon that...
You could also use str_replace to replace the "install/" with nothing, thus removing it...

As you can see, there are various ways.

C:/xampp/htdocs/application/config/config.php

trying to get it

C:/xampp/htdocs/codeigniter/application/config/config.php
