finding file being called in php

Okay so I have a joomla site that uses a compponet that is used to create events or booking times. My problem is I can't find the form file that I am trying to access within my joomla administrator componets directory for the com of that plugin. Here is the URL of that form makeanappointment/create?dtstart=201404250930&cal_id=5

So my question is is there a script I can run in PHP to find out all those files being called in and their location?

When looking for a particular source file, I usually expand the extension installation file on my local machine and then use a search utility to find instances of text used on the web page.

Once I can find the correct source file on my local machine, it's usually fairly easy to find the file on the website.

Theres a PHP function called get_included_files() which returns a list of all files that were loaded via include, include_once, require and require_once.

It may be a bit primitive for what you are looking for (it doesn't have the caller line numbers etc), but it will at least show you all the files used during a particular execution. Just add a call to that function near the end of the main script.

Since it returns an array you'll probably need to dump the contents (i.e. print_r(get_included_files()).

See the get_included_files() manual page on php.net for more usage details.
