I donšt know of any function off the top of my head, but you could try doing
an:
$array = explode(' ', $string);
$lastword = array_pop($array);
$string = implode(' ', $array);
Now $string is equal to the original string without the last word.
$lastword is equal to the lastword.
It's possible there is an easier way of doing this, but this is what I came
up with off the top of my head :)
