note 73226 added to function.pathinfo

Here is my simple alternative to pathinfo using preg_match: <?php function path_info( $path ) { preg_match('/^(.*)\/(.*)(\.(.*))+$/', str_replace('\\', '/', $path), $matches); return array( 'dirname' => $matches[1], 'basename' => ($matches[3]?$matches[2].'.'.$matches[4]:$matches[2]), 'extension' => ($matches[4]?$matches[4]:null), 'filename' => $matches[2] ); } ?> I'm not the greatest at regular expressions. If I am doing anything wrong, please let me know!
