Documentation

It would be great if you'd extend the readme to a sort of a documentation of what's included and how to use everything. This way you'd make it useful for other people too. Hint hint.

Server DOCUMENT_ROOT used instead of FCPATH

In footer_js.php and head.php
Server DOCUMENT_ROOT used instead of FCPATH
Causes issues when installing this in a sub-folder, and not using "web" for the root.
