folder path in variable

[GO ILLINI]

PHP Code:

...stuff...
$path = 'C:\HLserver\cstrike';
...stuff...
// DO NOT EDIT
$cstrike = $path . '\\'; 


That is part of my config file for a program I'm making.
Is there any way that the user can just put the path with the \ on the end of it in the $path var? Or is there mayb a way that I could invisibly do the "$cstrike = $path . '\\';"

Looking for something like this?

PHP Code:

if (substr($path, -2) == "\\") {
    // nothing
} else if (substr($path, -1) == "\") { 
    $path = ($path . "");
} else {
    $path = ($path ."");
} 


That way, $path will always have "\\" on the end.

Sorry, I should have said what I wanted $path to turn out to be.
C:\HLserver\cstrike\
Php doesnt like having a \ at the end of a variable, so I had to use the \, to cancle the \. get it?
The code I have to add the final \ works, but I want to know any ideas to hide it somewhere so that the config file is just variables and descriptions.

You could put this code into another file, and then just do:

PHP Code:

require_once("config.php"); 


But normally a "DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS LINE" works fine, and most people will understand.

[GO ILLINI]

ok, Ill just go with the under this line thing.

You could always use forward slashes...
