php using files in the parent folder
<p>Is there any way to use a php file in the parent folder. I have a tree like this</p>

<pre><code>\
- index.php
- requirements.php
\Learning Center
 - index.php
</code></pre>

<p>When in the root folder, I can call <code>./requirements.php</code>, but i cannot do this from inside the Learning Center folder. </p>

<p>In an attempt to fix this, I used the full url path to the file, but now I get this error:</p>

<p>Warning: require_once() [function.require-once]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration</p>

<p>I cannot change the server configuration, is there any way for me to refer to the requirements.php file from inside the Learning Center folder? I do not want to resort to putting a copy of all the resources I need into each folder.</p>

<p>Note: Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, but I have only been programming in php for 2 days.</p>
