I have the potential for strings where the string will contain a front slash; index_Foo_Communications_c/o_Bar_Enterprises_20050718 I want to use the string to name a text file index_Foo_Communications_c/o_Bar_Enterprises_20050718.txt but it always fails to open the file because of the front slash. I have completely brain farted on how to escape this (perhaps only 2 hours of sleep last night) and I cannot find what I am looking for in the manual. addslashes? mysql_real_escape_string? nope...nope...ack. Coffee...where is the coffee? What do you mean, "I didn't make any more?" Are you new here?
