I'm needing to include a file from the parent directory, and other sub-directories, into a sub-directory.

The include (or require) statement takes all the text/code/markup that exists in the specified file and copies it into the file that uses the include statement. Including files is very useful when you want to include the same PHP, HTML, or text on multiple pages of a website.
If the file isn't found in the include_path, include will finally check in the calling script's own directory and the current working directory before failing. The include construct will emit an E_WARNING if it cannot find a file; this is different behavior from require, which will emit an E_ERROR.

If you use fopen() on a file that does not exist, it will create it, given that the file is opened for writing (w) or appending (a). The example below creates a new file called "testfile.txt". The file will be created in the same directory where the PHP code resides:
