 * I want to include a random picture from my gallery. A user here showed the code
   as
    <?php include(‘[http://www.mydomain.com/gallery/block-random.php&#8217](http://www.mydomain.com/gallery/block-random.php&#8217););?
   > This worked until my host turned off the include urls. My gallery is a sub 
   of my main and I can’t seem to get the relative path correct. I have tried everything
   my little brain can think of and still no luck. I tried ../../../ ad naseum. 
   I tried using wpurl and then I still get “URL file-access is disabled in the 
   server configuration” hELP
