Backslash problem with xataface on windows?

[sophistry]

I'm having an issue where xataface is inserting "\/" or "\/\/" in the address string when running on an XP machine with MySQL 5.0.5, and xampp/apache.

Example:
http://localhost/\/index.php?-table=My_Table

http://localhost/\/\/index.php?-table=My_Table&-action=browse&-cursor=0&-skip=0&-limit=30&-mode=list

I don't have an issue when loading other pages locally, just the xataface files. It fails to load, but if I take out the "\/\/", it works fine (until I try to follow another link). Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

I checked my httpd.conf and index.php/conf.ini, but didn't see any path problems or out-of-place \'s. I'm pretty sure this is some kind of conversion problem in xataface, but I can't figure out where.

Thanks,
Rory

For anyone having a similar problem, I finally found an old post with a fix in it...

In your init.php, replace the following line:

define('DATAFACE_SITE_URL', $temp_site_url);

with this line:

define('DATAFACE_SITE_URL', str_replace( '\\', '/', dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])));



... which, in effect, will force all backslashes to become forward slashes in the URL.
