$dir = str_replace($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], "PAGE_NAME.PHP", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
chdir($dir);
Not sure if it'll work, but it's worth a try.:p
Nah, that didn't work, lol. Oh well. I'll just have to edit the code for each page. Thanks a lot for your help.
No problem. Glad I could help
What about creating a new page and including the file into your current ones?

But what chdir code would I put on that new page that would work for all current pages? The chdir code needs to be different depending on where the file is located.
../ does work TomL, btw.
The only thing I can think of is just using:
require_once "mybb/global.php";
or whatever that file is..
What about full relative path? For example /public_html/mybb/global.php or however your server works (ex it can also be /www/domain/htdocs/blah/blah) Just try lots of them or have a different path on every page.

I don't recommend using relative paths, simply because it's better to just go from where you are. Especially since most websites read from where you are.
Examples:
You're in | You Enter.. | Equals(if you do chdir(dirName))
htdocs/ mybb/ htdocs/mybb/
htdocs/mybb/ lol/ htdocs/mybb/lol/
Eh, doesn't matter. I just added the code to each page and made it different depending on where the page was located. So, it's all working now. Thanks for your help, everyone.
