Once again, you need to talk to your host about paths, they are not universal and can vary widely by server. It's not about not wanting to help, it's about the inability for anyone on the outside to know. Having your domain does not change that.

For example, while /var/www/ is a common root path up to domain profiles, httpdocs is probably below the web accessible layer, but it doesn't have to be.

That said, if you're not starting with a /, the path will add on to the current location of the script in the same way a link without http:// will add on to your current domain.
