How can PHP developers handle relative paths when working with images in different directories?

When working with images in different directories, PHP developers can handle relative paths by using the `dirname(__FILE__)` function to get the current directory path and then concatenate the relative path to the image file. This ensures that the correct path to the image is used regardless of the directory structure. 

// Get the current directory path
$currentDirectory = dirname(__FILE__);

// Define the relative path to the image file
$imagePath = $currentDirectory . '/images/image.jpg';

// Use the $imagePath variable to display the image
echo '<img src="' . $imagePath . '" alt="Image">';
