I have a problem on linking files such as stylesheets, images, database connection file(db.php), script files and etc.. because they are located outside the file where they are included/linked.

For example assuming this is the location of the main file where everything will be called:

my website directory/admin/thefilewhereeverythingwillbecalled.php

in thefilewhereeverythingwillbecalled.php, I must call the db.php which is located outside the folder that contains thefilewhereeverythingwillbecalled.php

e.g. my website directory/-this is the directory where the db.php is located-/thefilewhereeverythingwillbecalled.php – ditto the style sheets and script.

However the stylesheets and script are in the folder cssandjs (contains all stylesheets and script files) which this folder are located before the location of the thefilewhereeverythingwillbecalled.php

e.g. my website directory/-here is where the cssandjs folder is located-/thefilewhereeverythingwillbecalled.php

Generally I’m just having a problem on linking files which is outside from the file where it called those files. Can someone give me an idea how to link it please?

I tried this:

../cssandjs/style.cssand ./cssandjs/jquery.js but none of them work

    If I’m correct, it’s 2 directories up. Try this :

    ../../cssandjs/style.css
    

    This will work if /cssandjs/ is in your website directory.
    You should be a bit more specific with your directory names instead of -here is where this is located-

    Can’t seem to figure out which are in the same folder.
