note 68094 added to function.mkdir

cost me an hour to get recursive switch to work in windows with php 5.2.0, so share it here. The key is backward slash in windows , this php version doesn't recognize forward slash as valid path separator for mkdir(), though other functions support forward-slashed paths just fine. The following example works in Windows: <?php $mypath="testdir\subdir\test"; mkdir($mypath,0777,TRUE); ?> This doesn't work in windows: <?php $mypath="testdir/subdir/test"; mkdir($mypath,0777,TRUE); ?> ---- Server IP: 66.207.199.35 Probable Submitter: 209.68.188.251 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mkdir.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/68094 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68094 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/68094 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
