Question

This is a really easy question, but I can’t figure out what I should be using exactly.

My $image['url'] is http://hello.com/uploads/2012/name.jpg

So I want to just be left with this… name.jpg

I tried lots but I think explode is the one I should use but I just get array outputted from this.

$filename = explode('/', $image['url']);

echo $filename;

Can anyone please point me in the right direction on the php manual.

Thank you.

Your code was mostly right, just lacking an array_pop() to extract last element of array returned by explode(), like this:

$filename = array_pop(explode('/', $image['url']));

echo $filename; //echoes 'name.jpg'
