Move forum from "/forum/" to "/"? [Solved by Smartys]

Okay, thanks!

Also, when I have my default site index (index.php) in the root directory, is there a way to change the forum index.php (to forum.php or something) so I wouldn't have to change the site? Or is there a way to get it the same as $_GET['view'] == 'forum'?

Anyway, I just bought this up: The reason why I want to change the directory is so that I can include the login data on normal webpages aswell. This is on my index.php (site):

<?php
define('PUN_ROOT', './forum/');
define('PUN_TURN_OFF_MAINT', 1);

if($pun_user['is_guest'] == "TRUE")
    {
    echo "Welkom! <a href=\"/forum/login.php\">Log in</a> of <a href=\"/forum/register.php\">registreer</a>.";
    }
else
    {
    echo "Welkom, <strong>".pun_htmlspecialchars($pun_user['username'])."</strong>!<br><br>";
    }
?></td>
      <td><div align="right">
        <?php
define('PUN_ROOT', './forum/');
define('PUN_TURN_OFF_MAINT', 1);

if($pun_user['is_guest'] == "TRUE")
    {
    }
else
    {
    echo "<a href=\"/forum/profile.php?id=".pun_htmlspecialchars($pun_user['id'])."\">Profiel</a> - <a href=\"/forum/message_list.php\">Berichten</a>";
    }
?>

I also have a script on the same page (index.php) that lets me include other pages (for example, index.php?page=apagelol):

<?
if(empty($_GET['page'])) {
  include("neus.php");
} else {
  if(eregi("http://",$_GET['page'])) {
    echo "Het is niet toegestaan externe pagina's in te voegen.";
  } elseif(file_exists($_GET['page'].".html")) {
    include($_GET['page'].".html");
  } elseif(file_exists($_GET['page'].".php")) {
    include($_GET['page'].".php");
  } else {
    echo "404 error, pagina niet gevonden.";
  }
}
?>

But when I use these two codes together, the first one gets an error. This does not happen when I put this page in the PunBB forum directory (modified it, of course). So is there a way to get it anyway, or do I have to 'fuse' my forum and site directories?

Are you talking about the PunBB index.php?

Thanks for the link! I did forgot to mention I put the following in the head of my index.php page:

<?php define('PUN_ROOT', './forum/'); ?>
<?php include_once PUN_ROOT.'forum/include/common.php'; ?>

I'm not sure if this would work, given the fact that it's "include once" instead of "require" and I'm also not sure if I have to remove the 'forum/' in the same line (sorry, I'm a big n00b with PunBB coding). Also, do I have to include the code in the link you gave me multiple times for multiple PHP-includes? (this one)

define('PUN_ROOT', './forums/');
require PUN_ROOT.'include/common.php';

Thanks for the notification, I'll get after that once I'm done with this!

Ah, okay! Thanks Smartys! You are a great help!

So I finally managed to get everything right. However, there seems to be a problem when I include a PHP-page. It works fine when I include a html-page, but with a PHP-page it automaticly blocks off the PunBB integration-script. Is this a standard PHP-issue or is this a PunBB's problem (ergo: my fault)?
