    <p>When I echo "PHP_SELF" in localhost running on xampp, I get the project folder as the echoed text e.g.</p> <pre><code>// index.php &lt;?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>The answer is </p> <blockquote> <p>/a3-ver-9.0/index.php</p> </blockquote> <p>but if I was on a server with a domain, that line would just return <code>"/index.php"</code></p> <p>Is there any way I can temporarily changes the default root in xampp to reflect this?</p> <p>The reason is because I use absolute paths from root to include resources e.g. images. however these absolute paths will not work if the root is not set correctly!</p> <p>Cheers</p> <p><b>EDIT</b></p> <p>To make things more clear...</p> <p>I have a website with php files that return parts of the page e.g. header.php and footer.php etc.</p> <p>I have an installation of wordpress and in the wordpress template, I include these files. and because im including these files from different directories, the paths inside the included files must be absolute.</p> <p>however the files in the header.php are included like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;img src="/images/image1.jpg" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>now this include is correct, and when I've finished the project and upload it to my server it will correctly retrieve the image.</p> <p>but when working with localhost, the root folder "/" is the folder where ALL my local projects are kept.</p> <p>So i need a way to temporarily change the localhost root for each project, so i dont have to mess about changing a load of paths when the project is ready for upload!</p> <p>Hope this made more sense</p> <p>However when working on local host</p>

    1. COThis sounds like a terribly complicated solution to a problem that probably has a much simpler one. Can you elaborate what your issue is with including images?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
