Bug description: rename() with relative paths - wrong behaviour
create a file c:\temp\temp.txt
Now create a PHP file, but not in the root directory of your webserver, but in a subdirectory of it,
that contains this command:
rename("c:\\temp\\temp.txt", "temp.txt");
Now run this script from your webbrowser (e.g. http://server/subdir/rename.php)
The file is now moved away from c:\temp, but not into the directory where rename.php resides in (as
one would guess), but in the root directory of the web application!
