Description: ------------ Working with the file element on Windows gives broken "tmp_name" value: D:/phptempphp2C.tmp instead of D:/phptemp/php2C.tmp (or D:/phptemp\php2C.tmp which causes the error) Moving the files works without problems but _ruleIsUploadedFile() returns always false because is_uploaded_file($elementValue['tmp_name']) fails with the broken "tmp_name" value. Replacing '\' with '/' before the call to $this->_submitFiles = $this->_recursiveFilter('stripslashes', $_FILES); (line 260 of QuickForm.php) should solve this.

I've stepped into the same problem. It seems to me that only the 'name' element of a $_FILES item should be passed trough stripslashes. At most you can also process 'type', but 'tmp_name' shouldn't be processed at all. The value contained in there is generated at the server so it never gets slashes added to it.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net. In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show up on the website in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.
