Hi, all -- I have a line which strips the suffix (gif, GIF, TIFF, jpg, JPEG, etcetc or I would just use basename() :-) from a string but it seems needlessly drawn out:
$file = preg_split('/\./',$dirfiles[0]) ; $file = $file[0] ;
I would like to just assign the 0th element of the preg_split() output to
my variable. I've also had to use a temp array for stat() output in
other places.
Is there a way to address
preg_split('/\./',$string[0])[0]
or
stat("$somefile")[mode]
directly instead?
TIA & HAND
:-D
