Up to 4.2.3: dirname("c:/"); // or dirname("c:"); // both returned '.' in 4.3.0 RC2, we got now: dirname("c:/"); // gives you c:\ dirname("c:"); // gives you c: (i) I'm not sure that such path shall be used with dirname(). But after all, why not? And in fact I used it. (ii) What's the reason for that behaviour change? (iii) As some of my classes are now broken, will this new behaviour become the rule for the future? Apache independent. Standarts php.ini (recommended) and httpd.conf Mozilla 1.2 Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20895&edit=1
