You may want to try exploding on the ".":
$fooPieces = explode($foo, ".");
That way everything before the dot, is in the first piece of the array and
everything after is in the second part of the array. However this may cause
issues if filenames will contain dots. But if you follow an 8.3 or 8.4
character filename structure you will be fine.

Subject: [PHP] string replace
How can I strip everything past a certain character in a string?
i.e.:
$foo = "test.gif";
// strip past the .gif
$foo = "test";
// again
$foo2 = "test.jpeg";
// strip past the .jpeg
$foo2 = "test";
