Hello, I just want to get the "index" part of "http://www.domain.com/stuff/ index.html". I'm trying to figure out this regex stuff, but it hasn't yet clicked. Here's my best guess: ereg('?/(*)\.html$', $source, $dest); To me -- and please be gentle -- this means, "Starting with the forward slash closest to the end of $source, capture whatever comes after it and before '.html', and put it in $dest." Obviously not correct, but I've spent an embarrassing amount of time feel stupid. Help? -- Charles Wiltgen
