Uncaught error search

Hi Ray, I have created a product catalog and search /results, but I'm getting an error and want to make sure it isn't a setup in the server connections:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function virtual() in /usr/home/ds/public_html/ds.com/products_results.php:3 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in /usr/home/ds/public_html/ds.com/products_results.php on line 3

http://66.39.111.101/products_search.php running the site as an IP as the url is not live.

virtual() is an Apache-specific function, Dreamweaver uses it instead of require_once() when your site definition is set to use absolute paths instead of file relative paths.

so should i replace virtual with require once or just add a forward slash before Connections like this: <?php virtual('/Connections/DealersSupplyCo.php'); ?>

Whichever you want to use as long as you are on apache. I usually use file relative paths and require_once() but I don't think it matters that much.

FYI. If I leave the forward slash in the call <?php require_once('/Connections... it doesn't work. It has to be relative... this may create a problem for admin inside a sub-directory I think
