[SOLVED] Were did the slashes go?

[mike12255]

I got the following code:

 

 

if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
$pic = $_FILES['imagefile']['name'];
$wantedname = $_POST['name'];

$target_path = "images\cat\images";

$target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['file']['name']); 

$name = basename( $_FILES['file']['name']);

 

So im putting $target_path into the database. The picture name is So cute.jpg when i look at in the database it shows this:

 

 

imagescatimagesso cute.jpg

 

Theres no slashes in it but there was before it went into the database. Anyone know why?

[haku]

$target_path = "images\\cat\\images";

Just use single quotes to stop the parsing

$target_path = 'images\cat\images';

 

in anycase the path should be

 

$target_path = 'images/cat/images';
