I am new to codeigniter (and php in general) and I am following the tutorial to learn it. Following this link : https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/tutorial/static_pages.html
in the controller it checks whether the a file exists using
if ( ! file_exists('application/views/pages/'.$page.'.php'))
My question is: this script is running from application/controllers/pages.php so isn't the path given to file_exists
relative to the current script ? that is it should point to application/controllers/application/views/pages/'.$page.'.php'.
However this is not the case and the path in fact checks files relative to the path root ! So is this php matter or codeigniter ?
Thanks.
All paths are relative to the entry script (likely index.php
or whatever Codeigniter uses).
To get paths relative to the current script use the __FILE__
constant.
file_exists(dirname(__FILE__) . "/path/to/file.php");
