Ok I am creating a site that has the main pages located in the root directory and other pages within different sub directories such as /codes/layouts/page.php I am using PHP includes for the navigation menu, header, and footer to make the site easier to update but am having a problem with the files located in the sub directories showing the wrong link paths for the links in the navigation menu. I have tried a few things with no luck. Basically on each page I have this include for my nav menu column which works great for pages located in the root directory. <? include("menu.php"); ?> But when I visit a sub directory page on my site like www.mysite.com/codes/layouts/blue-layout.php there is an error message where the menu should be. So after seeing this I changed the includes code to <? include("../../menu.php"); ?> on all sub directory pages I then go and check my site again GREAT the menu is there no but WAIT when I hover over a link in the nav menu it does not point to www.mysite.com/index.php it instead takes me to www.mysite.com/codes/layouts/index.php which of course generates a 404 page not found error. I am sure alot of you know how to fix this and I am sure its a simple fix so could someone please let me know what to do.
