<?php
$string = "C:/web_home/deluxe_mail/test.php";
$dir1   = dirname($string);
$dir2   = substr($string, 0, strrpos($string, '/'));

echo $dir1; // Outputs C:/web_home/deluxe_ma
echo $dir2; // Outputs C:/web_home/deluxe_mail
?>

dirname() obviously returns the wrong result in this case, and happens
in Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Windows XP
Professional, as well as Windows 2003 Enterprise Server.
