Relative URL

I have an include_once statement in a view that is not working.
Is there any specific way to use relative URLs and navigate in the directory tree, when using CodeIgniter?

This is my include statement:
include("/../../models/classes1/classes2/classetouse.php");

I get the following error message:


A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: include(/../../models/classes1/classes2/classetouse.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Filename: views/checkyouremail.php

Line Number: 3



A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '/../../models/classes1/classes2/classetouse.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/opt/alt/php53/usr/share/php:/opt/alt/php53/usr/share/pear')

Filename: views/checkyouremail.php

Line Number: 3


Can you please help?
My thanks in advanced

Everything is relative to INDEX.PHP, since that's actually the file being executed by PHP. Starting a path with a / isn't really "relative", it's the root of the device (usually a hard disk).

But if you're loading a model, why not just use $this->load->model('classes1/classes2/classtouse.php') ??

You also can use the APPPATH constant defined at the bottom of index.php (along with others), which is the full path to the /application directory, but I prefer just using the built in CI loader class which works for 99% of things.
