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

Get Last Part of URL PHP

The absolute simplest way to accomplish this, is with basename()

echo basename('http://domain.com/artist/song/music-videos/song-title/9393903');

Which will print

9393903

Of course, if there is a query string at the end it will be included in the returned value, in which case the accepted answer is a better solution.
