I’m including just the content sections of pages in one main PHP “shell” file. So, near the middle of the page, depending on the requested content, a php file is included from a sub folder, say “/content/mypage.php”;

it is then displayed on the main shell php page “/index.php”.

However, the “/content/mypage.php” may have image links like “…/images/myimage.jpg” but when its displayed in the shell file, the url should be “/images/myimage.jpg”.

Is there any way to use php to remove the relative link folders ("…/") or is there another way around this?

I hope I’ve explained this well enough. Thanks for any help.
