OK, I get the following error:
Warning: basename() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in....
When I use the following:
$thepath = parse_url($url);
$filename = basename($thepath);
Is my variable thepath not automatically string?

Hello List.
I need to parse the PATH portion of URL. I have assigned the path
portion to a variable using the following:
$thepath = parse_url($url);
Now I need to break each portion of the path down into its own
variable. The problem is, the path can vary considerably as follows:
/mydirectory/mysubdirectory/anothersubdirectory/mypage.php
vs.
/mydirectory/mypage.php
How do I get the either of the above url paths broken out so the
variables equal the following
$dir1 = mydirectory
$dir2 = mysubdirectory
$dir3 = anothersubdirectory
$page = mypage.php
...etc... if there were 5 more subdirectories... they would be
dynamically assigned to a variable.
Thanks for any help.

$filename = basename($path);
$parts = explode('/', $path);
$directories = array_pop($parts);
Now you have your directories in the $directories array and the
filename in $filename.
Thanks,
