Hi,

I'm trying to use includes for the first time and I have

#include "writeHTML.js"

where 'writeHTML.js' is in the same directory as the script calling it.

I've tried setting includepath to "./" or "/" or leaving it out altogether, but no luck... what am I doing wrong? I really don't want to use an absolute path...

Thanks,
Stan

if using cs3 or higher put this line above the #include
#includepath $.fileName.parent

or CS2
#includepath WhoAmI().parent
#include "writeHTML.js"

function WhoAmI() {
	var where;
	try {
		var FORCEERROR = FORCERRROR;
	}
	catch( err ) {
		where = File(err.fileName);
	}
	return where;
}

ok this is odd (and kinda lame)

If I add the line

includepath

with nothing behind it, the damn thing works. unbelievable.

Nearly all of my scripts have an includepath specified, whether it's used or 
not. It appears that you have to have at least one for '.' to be implicitly part 
of the include path. Odd indeed.

ok, now I'm really irritated... so the script dialog opens, but it's not finding a function within the included .js file. what is going on?

It would depend on where the include is and what format the function is declared.
functionName = function(){
}
would need to be inserted before calling.
function functionName(){
}
This should work anywhere.
