Before you do that, learn to read and follow along in an email thread that you start. We gave you perfect pointers as to (a) why regexp's aren't needed in this case; and (b) how to better handle it. Your substr() routine won't work as expected in all cases. Imagine either an .htaccess file or an extensionless file named quagmire. You'll come up with cess and mire, respectively. -- </Daniel P.
