I have the potential for strings where the string will contain a front

I want to use the string to name a text file
index_Foo_Communications_c/o_Bar_Enterprises_20050718.txt
but it always fails to open the file because of the front slash. I have
completely brain farted on how to escape this (perhaps only 2 hours of
sleep last night) and I cannot find what I am looking for in the manual.
addslashes? mysql_real_escape_string? nope...nope...ack. Coffee...where
is the coffee? What do you mean, "I didn't make any more?" Are you new
here?
I'd say it would be best to keep that slash out of the filename. Do a
regex on the string before doing anything else....
preg_replace ( "/\//", "-", $string );
