PHP RECEIPT PAGE ERROR

For some reason these are the errors I am getting on my receipt/index.php page

Warning: include(../inc/header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp1\htdocs\receipt\index.php on line 4

Warning: include(): Failed opening '../inc/header.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\xampp1\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp1\htdocs\receipt\index.php on line 4

Then the middle THANK YOU! section works out perfectly fine..

Warning: include(../inc/footer.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp1\htdocs\receipt\index.php on line 20

Warning: include(): Failed opening '../inc/footer.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\xampp1\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp1\htdocs\receipt\index.php on line 20

These used to be working fine then I don't understand where its going wrong.

Hi,

have you already sorted it out?

So index.php is in "C:\xampp1\htdocs\receipt\" folder and header.php is in "C:\xampp1\htdocs\inc" folder? If not, remove ".." from path like this: - include("inc/header.php") - If path is correct, be sure you have doublequotes in place: include("../inc/header.php");

Cheers, Martin
