I am using the relative path "../includes/gifs/" in a script "upload.php".  This script is in a directory called
glossary/admin, and I have a soft link to it in one called 
curios/admin.  

When I access it from curios/admin (over the web), the command dir works fine with ""../includes/gifs/" and returns the listing of curios/includes/gifs/.  But when
the same script from the same URL executes unlink on
"../includes/gifs/up.gif" it complains 

  Warning: Unlink failed (No such file or directory) in /home/caldwell/public_html/glossary/admin/upload.php on line 62

In short: dir(../*) seems to be relative to the script
soft link, and unlink(../*) seems to be relative to the soft link's target.

Configure line:

 './configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local' '--with-apache=../apache_1.3.22' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-posix' '--enable-sockets' '--with-gmp' '--with-db2' '--with-ndbm'
