Jason,
Thank you, explode using single quotes and no backslashes works!

hange the $ to something else if I'm getting the
information from a database (MySQL), not defining it using single quotes
like in your example?

try double \\ to escape the special characters used by php for variables and
what not. I think I read it here on a previous post.
Hope this helps

Not sure whether NT has anything to do with it but it works for me :-)
If you can't get the following code to work then you
Jason,
Thanx for your suggestion but I tried it and it didn't work. I'm not sure
if it matters, but this running on NT.

use single quotes: double quotes would confuse php with variable names.
it thinks that $General is a variable and replace it by it's empty content.
single quotes prevent php from evaluating the string:
$test_string = '1.2$General/ms1.zip';
single quotes on regex too (same reason). the backslash
10 matches
