I have a file structure like so:

Admin/index.php
index.php
master.php
site.js

Simplified version of master.php:

<html>
    <head>
        <script src="site.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <?php echo $content ?>
    </body>
</html>

Simplified version of index.php:

<?php ob_start(); ?>
Lorem ipsum
<?php
    $content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
    include("master.php");
?>

Simplified version of Admin/index.php:

<?php ob_start(); ?>
Lorem ipsum
<?php
    $content = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
    include("../master.php");
?>

index.php works just fine, but in Admin/index.php, it tries to find site.js in the Admin folder…

I could use /absolute/path/to/site.js, but different instances of the site are running under different urls (such as http://mysite.com/Instance1/Admin/index.php etc…)

So how can I fix this so that it looks for site.js in the folder that master.php is in, and not the folder of page including master.php?

    You could use
    <base href="http:/site.com/" />

    put it in the head section of your HTML (between <head> and </head>).

    The <base> tag specifies the base URL/target for all relative URLs in a document.

    So if you set this to http://yoursite.com/instance1/ and you set your js to script.js it will fetch it from http://yoursite.com/instance1/script.js.
