Get Last Part of URL PHP

Question

I m just wondering how I can extract the last part of a URL using PHP   The example URL is   http   domain com artist song music-videos song-title 9393903   Now how can I extract the final part using PHP   9393903   There is always the same number of variables in the URL  and the id is always at the end

You can use preg match to match the part of the URL that you want     In this case  since the pattern is easy  we re looking for a forward slash     and we have to escape it since the forward slash denotes the beginning and end of the regular expression pattern   along with one or more digits   d   at the very end of the string       The parentheses around the  d  are used for capturing the piece that we want   namely the end   We then assign the ending that we want   end  to  matches 1   not  matches 0   since that is the same as  url  ie the entire string      url  http   domain com artist song music-videos song-title 9393903    if preg match       d       url  matches        end  matches 1     else       Your URL didn t match   This may or may not be a bad thing      Note   You may or may not want to add some more sophistication to this regular expression   For example  if you know that your URL strings will always start with http    then the regex can become   http           d      where    means zero or more characters  that aren t the newline character

Split it apart and get the last element    end   end explode       url      or   end   array slice explode       url   -1  0     Edit  To support apache-style-canonical URLs  rtrim is handy    end   end explode      rtrim  url            or   end   array slice explode      rtrim  url         -1  0       A different example which might me considered more readable is  Demo     path   parse url  url  PHP URL PATH    pathFragments   explode       path    end   end  pathFragments     This example also takes into account to only work on the path of the URL     Yet another edit  years after   canonicalization and easy UTF-8 alternative use included  via PCRE regular expression in PHP     lt  php  use function call user func as f  use UnexpectedValueException as e    url    http   example com artist song music-videos song-title 9393903     result   preg match                  url   m          m 1        f function   use   url   throw new e  pattern on   url              var dump  result     string 7   9393903    Which is pretty rough but shows how to wrap this this within a preg match call for finer-grained control via PCRE regular expression pattern  To add some sense to this bare-metal example  it should be wrapped inside a function of its  own  which would also make the aliasing superfluous   Just presented this way for brevity
