Re: [hylafax-users] $ sign

Just found out that the $ sign doesn't come through when in :

$my_file="sending a dollar total
how about $5.00
";
sendfax etc $my_file

In fact it wipes the character after it as well leaving fax body with "how
about .00"! I can't find the HTML entity for it either anywhere. Anyone know
how to make $ not mess things up?



Barney,

Not that familiar with Hylafax and it's scripts but it sounds like the $ is getting parsed somewhere either escaping it with a backslash or encoding it should work.
