Um, duh... that's all I gotta say about by previous note. Please delete it. :) Windows Vista has its own symlink program now (mklink). Hopefully future versions of PHP for Windows will have this function put it? Anyway, this will work on Vista (assuming your PHP user has the proper permissions): <?php define('SYMLINK_FILE', 0); define('SYMLINK_DIR', 1); define('SYMLINK_JUNCTION', 2); function symlink ($target, $link, $flag = SYMLINK_FILE) { switch ($flag) { case SYMLINK_DIR: $pswitch = '/d'; break; case SYMLINK_JUNCTION: $pswitch = '/j'; break; case SYMLINK_FILE: default: $pswitch = ''; break; } // Change / to \ because it will break otherwise. $target = str_replace('/', '\\', $target); $link = str_replace('/', '\\', $link); return exec('mklink ' . $pswitch . ' "' . $link . '" "' . $target . '"'); } ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 63.228.204.86 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.symlink.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74464 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74464 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74464 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
