As of PHP 5.1.4 compiled on a mac, using rename with spaces one should just use the space. Take for example: rename("/tmp/somefile.tar", "/mnt/laptop storage/somefile.tar"); If you use the backslash, like if you were cd-ing to the directory, rename will fail. Example: rename("/tmp/somefile.tar", "/mnt/laptop\ storage/somefile.tar"); While not really a bug, it did confuse me for a little bit while working on a backup script. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 12.226.28.174 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/70639 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/70639 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/70639 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
