in thread / to \ substitution

Actually, try this as well: 
use CGI qw(:all);

$debug = 1;

$file2 = param('file') unless $debug;
$file2 = 'c:\foo\bar.txt' if $debug;
print "$file2\n";
$file2 =~ s[\\][/]g;

This debug thing really was a neat thing, btw.

    I must be missing something, because I don't see what the problem is. The substitution is working correctly, as you will see if you add a second print "$file2\n"; at the end. What is it that you are trying to achieve?
