Issues with backslashes and GET data

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I use a php page which is supposed to return records from a database table limited to the servername specicified in a drop down menu.
A servername may contain a backslash e.g. Server1\SQL1.
When this data is returned from the URL e.g. $server = $_GET['server'];
The name is returned as Server1\\SQL1, so the search fails.

I've tried using a regular expression to remove one of the backslashes:
$server = ereg_replace("\\", "\", $server);
but I can't get this to work either.

Any suggestions welcome, I'm running out of ideas.
