note 57420 deleted from function.realpath by nlopess

Note Submitter: nospam at savvior dot com ---- Hello, I was having problems getting realpath to work on a windows shared hosting machine and used this function to resolve it... hope this helps someone Code: <? function realpath2($path) { ////check if realpath is working if (strlen(realpath($path))>0) return realpath($path); ///if its not working use another method/// $p=getenv("PATH_TRANSLATED"); $p=str_replace("\\","/",$p); $p=str_replace(basename(getenv("PATH_INFO")),"",$p); $p.="/"; if ($path==".") return $p; //now check for back directory// $p=$p.$path; $dirs=split("/",$p); foreach($dirs as $k => $v) { if ($v=="..") { $dirs[$k]=""; $dirs[$k-2]=""; } } $p=""; foreach($dirs as $k => $v) { if (strlen($v)>0) $p.=$v."/"; } $p=substr($p,0,strlen($p)-1); if (is_dir($p)) return $p; if (is_file($p)) return $p; return false; } ?>
