Newbie Question

Hi everyone,

I have a technical question which I hope you can help me with.

Basically I'm developing a site and have decided that using Dreamweaver's
Templates is a pain in the arse and I'm using an 'Include' instead which
works like a charm.

However, it works fine on my testing server, but not on the remote server as
the Include comes up with an error if I try Include without a full URL. I've
managed to get it to work by using

Include ('http:\\www.myurllocation.com\thefilename.txt');

But it's really annoying to have to change the header and footer of each
..php file before I upload them. Is there a way of using PHP to detect if
it's on the testing server or remote server ?

Basically I'd like something like this

If Server=Local
{
Include ('file.txt');
}
Else
{
Include ('http:\\www.mysiteurl.com\file.txt');
}
EndIf

Can anyone help ?

Thanks in advance.

Stupid me...

Just did a PHPINFO();

and looked at the system variables produced...

Came up with this:

<?php


if ($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']!='localhost')

{
$Location='Remote';
}


else
{
$Location='Testing';
}

Echo"$Location";

?>

Which seems to work..
