Subject: Strip directory path to get just file name
Hi All,
If my value in a string is
c:\webshare\wwwroot\site\filename.cfm
, how I just strip it down so I can dump filename.cfm
into a variable?
I am thinking that I should access the above string
from the right side, looping through each character
until I get to the first "\". However, I don't know
where to start with the code (and, I left both cfwacks
books at home :(
Any help is very much appreciated!
Thanks!
Andy

This will strip the SCRIPT_NAME and leave you with the actual filename that is being served up to the server. cfset pagename = #RemoveChars(CGI.SCRIPT_NAME,1,1)# - Original Message - From: "cf kaizen" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 19, 2000 12:41 PM Subject: Strip directory path to get just file name Hi All, If my value in a string is c:\webshare\wwwroot\site\filename.cfm , how I just strip it down so I can dump filename.cfm into a variable?

H have you looked at the list functions? Your string is a list delimited by the "\" char.
