How do I include a php file from a directory named "files" in the CakePHP 1.3 folder structure?

I have CakePHP 1.3 like below. app -config -controllers -lib -models -views -webroot -css files -js

Now, in order to include the javascript file in my view file (.ctp), I know what I need to do

echo $this->Html->script('manage_products');

      

and it will include it, but if I want to include any php file from the file directory that is in the webroot folder, is there any cakePHP method or helper I can use or just want to require_once?

If the PHP file is independent of CakePHP, just use require_once

: -

<?php require_once WWW_ROOT . DS . 'files' . DS . 'foobar.php'; ?>

      



There is no need to complicate it further.
