How to use split function to split on a backslash

Jim Boya #1 / 4	How to use split function to split on a backslash I am trying to split a string which contains a backslash. I have tried: nothing seems to work I get errors from "search pattern not terminated" to "syntax error". $string contains something like "domainName\userName" and I would like to end up with: $words[0] = "domainName" $words[1] = "userName" Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.
