my code works fine if I remove the leading dots on file names, but breaks otherwise.
[edit]
The file starts with a dot (period) character
[end edit]
require_once(‘.htMyClass.inc.php’); //fails
require_once(‘htMyClass.inc.php’); //works
I wanted to keep the dots for security — the leading ht is just a hold over from apache. i don’t expect that to do anything special on windows.
Reading this Microsoft article, ‘IIS Hidden Static Files Return HTTP 404 or Access Denied Errors,’ it could be failing on purpose. Extend that to not even being able to include the file.
