Can't find "include" path

[Montbazin]

Hello

when I have the following include() path:

include "../my_script.php";

everything workes out fine
but when I move my file into a deeper folder and then modify my "include path to:

include "../../my_script.php";

I get an error message telling me that it can't find the "myscript.php" file.
Can anyone tell me why?
Thanks in advance

If you are bringing this file into different folders and not parent directories then you would specify the include like this:
include("fold1/fold2/my_script.php");

Refer to include [us3.php.net] for more information.

No, they are in parent directories that's why I write
../../etc
