The following code appears to work when a web browser is started under a UNIX environment, however the same code produces an error when I start a web browser under a Windows machine.

      $image_base="aaa";

      if (eregi("\.(jpg|gif)$",$image1,$regs)) {
	  copy($image1,"../homes/images/".$image_base.".".$regs[1]);
      }

The error that appears under a windows browser looks like this:

Warning: Unable to open 'C:\Documents and Settings\jfbell\My Documents\My Pictures\Sample.jpg' for reading: No such file or directory in /shared/www/data/old/virtual/i/ivoryhomes/control/modelhomes.phtml on line 18

Obviously, php is trying to use the Windows filename when copying.  This is wrong.

Can anyone help with this?

Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking
support questions. Your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.
For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP,
please visit http://www.php.net/support.php

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

thats how windows browsers treat file uploads
you can always use basename() to extract just
the filename
