Sorry, I changed submitter's e-mail. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-25 16:27:17] [EMAIL PROTECTED] At least "//server/share/filename/" had been working starting from 4.1.0 while '\\server\share\filename' didn't for quite a long time (until 4.2.0?). If you want to write cross plattform code it's not a bad idea to rely on php's auto conversion of slashes to backslashes in file paths on windows platforms. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-24 17:55:00] php at mijav dot dk I partially agree. I agree that it's incorrect. But the correct way should be '\\computername\share\filename' in plings, or "\\\\computername\\share\\filename" in quotes, as you said. I don't think the manual should read \\\\ (escaped backslashes) unless it is writtenly-quoted, to avoid misunderstanding. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-24 12:42:53] alan at frostick dot com Manual\function.file-exists.html Error in manual page? "On windows, use //computername/share/filename or \\\\computername\share\filename" Obviously wrong - shouldn't that read: "On windows, use //computername/share/filename or \\\\computername\\share\\filename" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22399&edit=1 -- PHP Documentation Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
