Hi.
getcwd() returns "C:\WINDOWS\Desktop
Confirmed.

can you please verify that you are really in the directory you think
you are using getcwd()?
(I wrote glob() in the first place but have no Win system to play with)

The script example provided in the glob() function page does not work
for me, running Windows ME. I tried this simpler test:
$a = glob ("*.txt");
print_r ($a);
... and I get an empty array.
Note that the script is in my c:/windows/desktop folder, and I have
quite a few text files there.
And if I run:
$a = glob ("../*.txt");
print_r ($a);
... I get the correct listing. But since the script is run from
c:/windows/desktop, glob ("../*.txt") should produce the listing of my
desktop's parent directory, i.e. c:/windows, shouldn't it?
If I state the full path to my desktop, i.e. glob
("c:/windows/desktop/*.txt"), then it works. But that is annoying
because whenever I move the script to another directory, I have to
change the path manually.
I am using PHP as a scripting language, of course.
Thanks,
