I noticed that Message-ID:
<1127146813.563664.109190@g43g2000cwa.googlegroups.com> from
hougie40@hotmail.com contained the following:

>$variable = "test";
>
>echo "c:\websites\menu\" . $variable;

The backslash is the escape character. For it to be a literal backslash
you have to escape it with...uh...a backslash.

echo "c:\\websites\\menu\\" . $variable;

Or you could do

echo "c:\\websites\\menu\\$variable";
