How big is the project you are trying to zip?

Which browser are you accessing the zip  with?

Subject: [Xerte] Problem with XOT file path
Message-ID:
	
<CAD58D43-vf1GVOj-86TyfgCx39WZWZg7vcB7a-ScErzezPJosQ at mail.gmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

I put XOT files inside my main site under a subdirectory*
'library\includes\xot\'*, and I didn't use the XOT setup process.
Instead, I write the config.php manually to point things to my site.
Now I have problem config the path-- the root file path is with "\"
while the XOT short pathes are with "/" , when joining the 2 pathes, I
got wrong path. For example:

define( 'XOT_DIR', substr(getcwd(),0,strlen(getcwd())-5) );
$xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_short = 'USER_FILES/'

 $xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_full =
$xerte_toolkits_site->root_file_path  .
$xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_short;

The output is:

'D:\xampp\htdocs\testjet\library\includes\xotUSER-FILES/'

so, I modified the full path to:
$xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_full =
$xerte_toolkits_site->root_file_path  .* '\\' *.
$xerte_toolkits_site->users_file_area_short;
The output is:

'D:\xampp\htdocs\testjet\library\includes\xot\USER-FILES/'

Seems not right. Is it how the thing supose to be, or should I use
str_replace to change the '\'  to '/' ?

Thanks for helping!

Yes, you can mix up \ and / in paths.

Thanks! That's encouraging :-)
I will move on with this path, let's see how this works after I finish
composing the config.php and test it.
