Question

I am not good at doing preg_match().Can someone help me create a preg_match() to retrieve that last parameter in the url.

PHP Code:

$url = "http://my.example.com/getThis";
$patern = ""; //need to create this

$result = preg_match($pattern, $url, $matches);

Thank you!

Answers of Muhammad Abrar Istiadi and AD7six are better ways to do the job than this and I strongly suggest using explode,

But to answer your question:

$url = "http://my.example.com/getThis";
$pattern = "/\/([^\/]*)$/";
preg_match($pattern, $url, $matches);
print_r($matches);`
