I'm getting confused about what exactly $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] is
supposed to show.

I have a site on a shared server, running PHP Version 4.3.10. But I was
getting a few uexpected errors

I ran script with phpinfo() to see what the results were and got the
following results under PHP variables:


_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] : /home

_SERVER["PATH_TRANSLATED"] :
/domains/h/e/myservername.com/public_html/phpinfo.php

why isn't there any relationship between the document root and the path
translated?
