[wp-hackers] best method for figuring out where a plugin is.

Here is a modified version of the function I use:

	function get_base(){
   		$base = end(explode('/',
str_replace(array('\\','/widgetprofiles.php'),array('/',''),__FILE__)));
   		if($base = 'plugins'){$base = '';}
   		return $base;
	}

It strips the file names, applies some windows fixes, explodes it on
the '/'s and then takes the last one. It kinda uses the long way, but
I was having issues using just the directory name function on some
set-ups. With this code, I've never had a problem on any set-up.
