How do I get the file name through an include?

    I have an include that leads to another include. Like:

    PHP code:
    
//file 1
include(../../file2.php);
//file 2
include(../../folder/folder2/file3.php);
//file 3
$filename = ??? file name of file 1?
    Code (markup):
    How would I get the file name of file 1 using PHP in file 3?

    Thanks!

    If I understood you correctly, you can get the file name writing $filename after including the file.

    <?php

//file 1
include('../../file2.php');
//file 2
include('../../folder/folder2/file3.php');
//file 3

$inc = get_included_files();

$filename = basename($inc[1]);
?>
