CD / DVD Rom Drive Detection

[dcstow]

I have a PHP website that I would like to put on CD.

I have got the basics of this working, using Server2Go.

Due to the setup of the website (it has some nifty image search function) the absolute path to image folder has to be defined (ie: c:/wamp/www/products/images/)

So, does anyone know of a way to detect what drive the CD was inserted into so I can replace the 'c:/' portion of the path to the correct letter when it is viewed from the CD...

Any help / suggestions are much appreciated.

$_SERVER['script_filename'] will give a path, though relative in some cases.
Play with the various server vars here:

In DOS/Windows, you can say \wamp\www\products\images, which will start from the root of the current drive.

WAMP? Is that when it is compiled as well?

[Twey]

As far as I'm aware, WAMP is a binary package for Windows compromising Apache, MySQL, and PHP. The user doesn't compile it...

Sorry. I misread the information. I was under the impression it was running from the CD as some type of standalone, not just installed as a "server".

Thanks for the help guys.

I've had some success using $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] to discover the drive letter.
