Same thing; I just replaced them with forward slashes. ----- Original Message ----- From: "eric dolecki" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2005 11:02 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] local file path prob
I am being given local file paths to things, however the backslashes are screwing things up. trace( "C:\Documents and Settings" ) You see the \ is eating the D - \D is a backspace? Its performing string modification. The problem compounds if there is a \r or \n in the filepath as well. Is the only solution here to have the string passed outside of flash the result of a search/replace ( "\" --> "/" ) ? I think I can get the developer to do this, but wondered if anyone else had run into this situation, and what you did to get around it. edolecki _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
