[FX.php List] A question about path when running cron jobs

[Jonathan Schwartz]

OK. That answers that question. Thanks.

Now, what is the best way to do this if my goal is to have 
transportable code with a single definition?  To be honest, path 
statements are not my strength.  In this particular case, the target 
folder (connections) is located outside of and at the same level of 
the web root.

Thanks,

J
