Note Submitter: dev at arthurk dot com ---- Here is a quick and easy way to get the base name and the extension of a file. I noticed that many examples here use explode(...), however this doesn't handle filenames like foo-1.0.1.tar gracefully. This code does. (foo-1.0.1 is the base, and .tar is the extension). <?php $file_basename = substr($filename, 0, strripos($filename, '.')); // strip extention $file_ext = substr($filename, strripos($filename, '.')); ?> Notice the use of "strripos()" instead of "stripos()". If you need to detect .tar.gz, etc. as the ext (starting at the first dot), substitute "stripos" for "strripos".
