forgive me if is a basic question...
I am working on setting up a form on our new hosted Wordpress site - currently hosted inhouse on IIS/PHP/Wordpress server (I am not JR - but this stuff escapes me and would really like to figure it out!! I hate not knowing)
The OP that made the form / got it working is no longer around and I am sure there is a better way but this is what I have - a request form.
When I load the required files in the same path - copy the code from the WP page and paste it in the new Wordpress page - it loads without formating, the pick box doesnt look right and when I submit the form - I get these below PHP file errors. I can open the path in my browser and it exists - I see the class.GA_Parse.php file)
I checked execustion rights on the scripts - its set to execute - apart from that I dont know why it cant fine the files and that include_path I dont see via my hosting companys dir structure via FTP.
Any help would put me forever in your debt, I hope to be able to return the help, this site looks amazing!
Cheers,

PHP will load pages based on the disk location, not the URL. This means it's starting in the server's root / directory, not in /home/company/public_html/stage/forms. When including a file, either you have to use a relative link:
require('./gaparser/class.GA_Parse.php'); // starts in the same directory as the file
Or use PHP's server variable to get the document root:
require($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/gaparser/class.GA_Parse.php');
The paths may need to be tweaked depending on where the file actually is.
