define('NF_APP_BASE',dirname(__FILE__));
require_once NF_APP_BASE . '/lib/index.php';
?> |
Then look for anything that says “request” which is basically the point of interaction, how it receives it and handles it. After that, I look for the database object, its methods. Until the haunt kept on going.
