I'm having trouble moving some directories. My script works fine on some 
directories but doesn't
move others. It seems to have trouble with directories with non alphanumeric 
charters. I'm running
Red Hat FC2. I'm trying to move the directory basically like this...

<?Php

$source_dir = '/some/dir/Dir That Won't Move/';
$dest_dir   = '/some/other/dir/'

$cmd = escapeshellcmd("mv ".$source_dir." ".$dest_dir);
$result = shell_exec($cmd);

?>

Is there some way to escape the characters in the directories? For example if i 
put a "\" in front
of blank spaces it takes care of those (same for "'","(" etc.) but that 
obviously doesn't take
care of everything. I'm hoping there is something easy i'm overlooking here 
that will escape all
the characters.




-k.
