links not working on web server

i have developed a php application which is running perfect on local server. when i deployed the application on web server the links are not working

1) my site is "abc.myapplication.com" (abc is subdomain)

i defined following variable in config file

 define('ROOT_PATH', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']);

ROOT_PATH variable shows /home/punjabfo/public_html/abc (which is perfect)

for link i used following code

<a href="<?php echo ROOT_PATH . "addrecord.php"; ?>">Add Record</a>

link should go to "abc.myapplication.com/addrecord.php" but link go to 

"abc.myapplication.com/home/punjabfo/public_html/abcaddrecord.php"

i tried a lot but could not fin the issue. please help. thanks

Why not to do

<a href="/addrecord.php">Add Record</a>

Of course you do not need ROOT_PATH in the URL. What you do is returning full path of the file, instead of link. And btw, full path is incorrect itself, as you forgot slash before addrecord.php.

What is wrong with Keeping It Simple

<a href="addrecord.php">Add Record</a>

Let the server do all the work, as it gets it right and you do less messing around.

Try

define('ROOT_PATH', $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);

Your issue is "$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']". $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] stands for the root directory on the server (dir-path). What you need, is the URL and not the file-system-path.

Take a look on

<?php 
   echo "<pre>";
   var_dump($_SERVER);
   echo "</pre>";
?>

You can try -

$url = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];   
echo 'http://'.parse_url($url, PHP_URL_HOST) . '/';

Just use 

<a href="<?php echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . "addrecord.php"; ?>">Add Record</a>
