Hi All,
When i grab the file extensions i usually go:
<?php
$str_ext = strtolower (strrchr ($str_file, '.')); //strtolower is not necessary but is
handy for pattern matching
echo $str_ext; // example .txt, .html, .gz etc....
?>
This won't work with .tar.gz, tar.bz2 etc.... but .gz should tell you plenty.
Hope that helps.
