Ed:
Better yet, because not all browsers pass through the original file name
that was was uploaded, have the user input the name - and validate that
instead. You can then restrict them to numbers letters:
$filename=ereg_replace("[^0-9a-zA-Z.]","",$filename)
Or something like that.

Yes this would be great only I'm not substituting a single character
found in a filename but a host of characters found in filenames.

You could do this a number of ways:
eregi(), ereg() or str_replace() ...
That will output "Whats up?"
