Bug #14745: ulink handles relative links oddly

From: caldwell@primes.utm.edu Operating system: Linux 2.4.4-ac6 PHP version: 4.1.1 PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related Bug description: ulink handles relative links oddly I am using the relative path "../includes/gifs/" in a script "upload.php". This script is in a directory called glossary/admin, and I have a soft link to it in one called curios/admin. When I access it from curios/admin (over the web), the command dir works fine with ""../includes/gifs/" and returns the listing of curios/includes/gifs/. But when the same script from the same URL executes unlink on "../includes/gifs/up.gif" it complains Warning: Unlink failed (No such file or directory) in /home/caldwell/public_html/glossary/admin/upload.php on line 62 In short: dir(../*) seems to be relative to the script soft link, and unlink(../*) seems to be relative to the soft link's target.
