im putting this post here to remember this important function to show the full path of a script, i use this to display the path of my install script so that i know where the user is installing their script.



CODE

$script_filename = getenv('PATH_TRANSLATED');

if (empty($script_filename)) {

	$script_filename = getenv('SCRIPT_FILENAME');

}

	$script_filename = str_replace('', '/', $script_filename);

	$script_filename = str_replace('//', '/', $script_filename);

	$dir_fs_www_root_array = explode('/', dirname($script_filename));

	$dir_fs_www_root = array();

	for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($dir_fs_www_root_array)-1; $i<$n; $i++) {

		$dir_fs_www_root[] = $dir_fs_www_root_array[$i];

	}

$dir_fs_www_root = implode('/', $dir_fs_www_root) . '/'; 

to show it in your html, just put this:
