JustinStone Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Hey everyone. I have a folder on my server named this abc$45$def$45$ghi Originally, before a script created this folder on my server, it was name abc-def-ghi So it took the '-'s and put in some special characters. Now, what you see below does not work. When I try to use the folder name below, my url box in my browser only shows some of it. $var = " abc$45$def$45$ghi"; header("location: http://mysite.com/myscript.php?type=" . $var . ""; the above outputs in my url box the following. http:///www.mysite.com/myscript.php?type=abc$45$$45 Any ideas ?

jazzman1 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Have you ever heard about properly naming file and directory names under Unix/Linux or some other operating systems? Why are you using a dollar sign as a part of directory name?
