I'm running php on linux and wish to use basename() to get the file name
from a windows path.
basename() on our linux/php box can't seem to cope with the use of
backslash (\) in the Windows paths I'm feeding it.
In other words:
basename(/usr/blah/doh/yuck/wow/abigfile.html)
resolves to :

basename(adirectory\onawindowsbox\abigfile.html)

Convert all \ to /

Replace the \ with / using str_replace or some such function before
using basename. Windows will handle either kind of path. Linux does not
know the \ as a file path separator. It only knows /
Just make sure that you never need
5 matches
