Hi Everyone. First time poster.

My question is about extracting part of a path from the right.

e.g. folder/images/testimage.jpg

how do I get everything from the right all the way up to the first "/"

Thank you in advance.

Hi Lilmouseman,

I see that you were happy with using basename().

>From your question it seems that you are talking about a URL rather than a 
file path.

For file paths, lookup these functions -
pathinfo() - http://php.net/manual/en/function.pathinfo.php
realpath() - http://php.net/manual/en/function.realpath.php

For HTTP paths, lookup these functions -
parse_url() - http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php
parse_str() - http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-str.php

For functions that work with URL's or file paths, lookup these functions -
dirname() - http://php.net/manual/en/function.dirname.php
basename() - http://php.net/manual/en/function.basename.php
