Just a note, testing for those characters is trickier than it sounds.  The
backslash throws off the test.  Here's what I did on a POST form.  Note the
-two- backslashes.


$chkstring=substr($thisfile,0,5);
    if ("$chkstring" != "{\\rtf") {
        // fail
    }

This seems to work, but I'm wondering if there's a better way.
