Re: Problem with mkdir() under windows.

mmmh... i think your problem isn't in mkdir, it is in evil MAGIC QUOTES! (they are on by default) if you are getting the name of the directory from GET, POST or COOKIE, check the get_magic_quotes_gpc(), else check get_magic_quotes_runtime(), if the problem is in get_magic_quotes_runtime(), you can do set_magic_quotes_runtime(0) beforegetting the directory name, so it won't be quoted, but if the problem is in get_magic_quotes_gpc(), you will have to do something like: if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) stripslashes($dirname); luis.
