Does anybody know a way around this or > can maybe provide some insight about why this is happening? It probably isn't removing it, it's converting it into an EOT character (0x04). That's pretty standard for most environments that do backslash substitution. It should also convert \48 and \060 into a '0' character. (The first being decimal, the second octal due to the leading zero.) -Pat -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
