As an alternative to pathinfo()
, you can use
basename()
— Returns filename component of pathExample from PHP manual
$path = "/home/httpd/html/index.php";
$file = basename($path); // $file is set to "index.php"
$file = basename($path, ".php"); // $file is set to "index"
You have to know the extension to remove it in advance though.
However, since your question suggests you have the need for getting the extension and the basename, I'd vote Pekka's answer as the most useful one, because it will give you any info you'd want about the path and file with one single native function.
