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 path separator character. In
other environments, it is the forward slash
(/).
Esimerkki 1. basename() example $path = "/home/httpd/html/index.php";
$file = basename ($path); // $file is set to "index.php"
$file = basename ($path,".php"); // $file is set to "index" |

Huomaa:
The suffix parameter was added in PHP 4.1.0.

to avoid having the object in mem changed, use:
$mystring =
basename(strval($file),".ext");

'Get Filename without path and
extension':
$filename=current(split("\.",basename($SCRIPT_NAME)));
That's
the shortest one. Right?

I have a small amendment to darianlassan's 'filename without path and
extension' line:
$filename = current(explode('.',
basename($SCRIPT_NAME)));
As it says on the split()
page:
"Note that if you don't require the power of regular
expressions, it is faster to use explode(), which doesn't incur the
overhead of the regular expression engine."

basename() and dirname() both accept a relative path/filename as input.
Example:
print basename('./public_html/index.php'); /* returns
'index.php' here */
