escaping forward slashes

[jamesmorris86]

Hey, i have managed to escape most of this echo but I cannot figure out the forward slashes that come before and after $dir.

Anybody know how i escape forward slashes.

echo "[ - <a href='". /$dir/ ."game_play.php'>Play</a> - ]"; // Displayed if connection OK.

I tried that one but it gave me an error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '.' in /var/www/html/game/game_status.php on line 12
