marauder has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

i am making a cgi upload script which gets a file handle from a form parameter. how do i convert the slashes in the parameter from \ to /? that is \\pcname\share\dir\filename.ext to //pcname/share/dir/filename.ext. thanks in advance for any help.
