We can find absolute path in different ways on a web server using PHP, I am showing some of that practices here
|
1 2 3 4 |
echo realpath(dirname(__FILE__)); // realpath() , This function removes all symbolic path and returns the absolute path name , this function return false an failure //dirname() , Returns the parent directory path // __FILE__ ,The full path and file name of the file |
|
1 2 |
echo getcwd(); //getcwd(), function get the current working directory , returns true on success return false on failure |
|
1 2 3 |
print_r($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']); //$_SERVER is an array with headers,path,script location information. //$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] , returns the current executing script directory |
|
1 2 |
// absolute path with file name echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']; |
