When using a form with an input textbox such as the following ...
<input type="text" name="field1" size=30>
I discovered that when a backslash (\) is typed into the textbox,
when I later check the value (in $field1), I get *two* backslashes.
For example, If I type ...
c:\abc\xyz
the $field1 variable will then have a value of ...
