Note Submitter: raystorm1 [at] gmail [dot] com ---- 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().
