OK I think I figured it out and I can see the code for replacing the
backslahes -- path.replace(/\\/g,'/');
But it is only doing it for when its assigning the URL parameter. I had to
add these two lines:
var relpath=relpath.replace(/\\/g,'/');
// added line
var path=path.replace(/\\/g,'/');
// added line
Hopefully I didn't break anything but it seems to be working correctly
now.
