global.php

how do i include global.php into a non vb page so i can get all its info etc from it
when i include it it cant find things in other files becuase all my sttuff is in /forums and my website is in root.
if i put all the paths in i get a blank page.
any idea why and how to fix this?

thanx
Damon

You need to change directory first before requiring global.php.
For example:

chdir('./forums');
require('global.php');
