Removing a rogue image

Did you try what I suggested in post #3 ( http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showpost.php?p=495738&postcount=3 ) ?

a \\ escapes the \ and then a \' escapes the quote

 

I tried it using FTP using the raw command thing but it didn't work. Perhaps thats not how I'm supposed to run that command lol.

 

No, that is a shell commend.

for ftp try

delete ALLI\\\'S FILM0006.jpg

and/or

delete "ALLI\'S FILM0006.jpg"

 

Nope that doesnt work either.

1 second and I'll have the whole thing removed.

 

Ah I missed that this also has a space in it???

you need a slash before the space also

 

You're like me jbw. Once I've started a puzzle I have to try and solve it

Yes, it has a space between the 2 words but that's the only 1.

 

lol, yep..

a space seperates file names.... so it is one heck of a bad file name!

delete ALLI\\\'S\ FILM0006.jpg

failed then also?

To bad you don't have shell access.. that would make it easier.

If your delete all approach does not work you could also try making a php program to delete or system out to delete it using rm.

 

Thanks for all the help jbw

 

lol, ok, I'll stop.

 

Just stab it, Weir. That might not remove it but at least it will punish it and maybe kill it.
