Probably it's shorter to reverse the thing and test for "windows or else" anyway
I would say It seem to work, since the "/" works anyway in normal paths under Windows too.J. Baker wrote: Why do you say that? It works just fine here on my Mac and my XP pc. Did it not work for you? What OS are you using?

Not sure what you are asking here?What does your XP machine prints ?
