In response to leelu123 at gmail dot com You have a good idea, but that only works for a string that leads to a directory and ends in a '/', for strings that end in a file name that doesn't work. However this does: <?php basename( dirname($file_name_to_check) ); ?> after pulling out the directory information, basename() treats the final directory like it is a file, thanks to it not having the file name or a '/' at the end of the string, courtesy of dirname(). ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 137.229.21.115 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.basename.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90333 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90333 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90333 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
