Hello. Under ActivePerl/Apache2/Win2k, sometimes (not everytime) the

Does the $file syntax should follow some rules (comes from a form and I
don't escape the "\", is that ok ?) ?

What \ are you talking about?

Think! Win2K -> \

We expect people posting a message to have some clue, why not the people
who reply?

Are you honestly going to tell me that with the post the OP presented
us, we should assume the only \ he had in his string were correct Win2k
directory separators?

I for one chose not to. And the OP posted no code to make me believe
otherwise.
