PLEASE HELP: Can't get variables for homedir to work in IIS and PHP

dethknite

I am having problems getting this .php to run on my iis server. It runs ok on a webhost, i believe the code is not unix/windows compatible. I am running winXP and IIS5 with php 4.3.10 and mySQL 4.1.9.

Currently the code is having problems in the uploading a file section at the bottom of the segment of code here. A picture of the error can be viewed below... right click "copy shortcut" and paste it in a browser:

The picture of how it looks BEFORE I click create on directory is here:

The picture of how it is AFTER I click create is here:
http://members.tripod.com/blue_eyed_romeo/error_after_click_create.gif

The picture of how it acts after I do the above and go back to the screen is here:
http://members.tripod.com/blue_eyed_romeo/error1.gif

The red error message sometimes will read:
"Error during read of "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pics\galleries/c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pics\galleries/"

and after going to other menus and back... that will grow...
example
"c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pics\galleries/c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pics\galleries/c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pics\galleries/c:\inetpub\wwwroot\pics\galleries/".....and so on

This is a segment of the code...

download attachment to view php.ini (it will look garbled together if you don't download it to desktop then view it)

my first guess is this. in php the escape character is a \ and on windows paths are written as C:\somedir\somefile, therefore in any php strings and variables where you call a windows path you must escape the \ like so: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\scripts\script.php

you may also want to try changing $homedir to just 'galleries' since that is the equivalent of ./galleries

I tried changing the $homedir variable to just "galleries", couldn't determine where the code is at that would be setting the "/".

Also, I thought this was the case too, I went so far as to setup a version of EasyPHP with apache, mysql, and pear all presetup and running and ran it on there... still getting the same error, though this time it doesn't have a "/" at the end... but it repeats itself as such:
"
"c:\easyphp1-7\www\pics\galleries\c:\easyphp1-7\www\pics\galleries\test" could not be created.

Error during read of "c:\easyphp1-7\www\pics\galleries\c:\easyphp1-7\www\pics\galleries"

"

Hmmm, seems like some variable is adding it twice maybe.... this code works on webhosts though... maybe it is the way php is setup...?
