Hello!

I'm using the following method to retrieve the filname from a full server
path:

<%
sub getfname(strPath)
Dim fName
fName = Mid(strPath,InStrRev(strPath,"\")+1)
'fName = strPath
Response.Write( fName )
end sub
%>

However this only works on Windows systems as it checks for backslash. Is
there a more generic way to do this, or should I check for both backslash
and slash in the path?

thanks,

Peter

A / perhaps? Unix notatio, there are Unix/Linux modules for .NET out there
so it would be possible to run an ASP site on a linux-machine...
