basename

Description

string basename ( string path [, string suffix])

Given a string containing a path to a file, this function will return the base name of the file. If the filename ends in suffix this will also be cut off.

On Windows, both slash (/) and backslash (\) are used as directory separator character. In other environments, it is the forward slash (/).

Eksempel 1. basename() example
<?php $path = "/home/httpd/html/index.php"; $file = basename($path); // $file is set to "index.php" $file = basename($path, ".php"); // $file is set to "index" ?>

Bemærk: The suffix parameter was added in PHP 4.1.0.
