note 100694 added to function.rename

Anonymous is incorrect -- Windows systems, at least as far back as XP, and forward including Server 2003, Vista, Server 2008 and 7 are ALL compatible with forward slash path separators, meaning you don't have to keep escaping the slashes, EXCEPT in the case of UNC names, however this: <?php $path = '\\\\somemachine/path/to/resource'; ?> is perfectly valid, as is this: <?php $path = 'c:/path/to/resource'; ?> ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.55 Probable Submitter: 98.219.118.210 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/100694 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100694 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/100694 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
