Oh, I should probably have mentioned that what I want to end up with is the
stuff to the right of the last slash (be that forward of backslash).

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Stripping filepath from string


Hi list,

I know I have seen this somewhere - but I can't find it (and for some reason
I can't get my head around it).

Is there a predefined function or alternatively an easy way to strip the
filepath of a string containing both filepath and filename?

Strings could look like this:
        /my/file/path/myfile
        /my/file/path/myfile.name
        c:\my\file\path\myfile
        c:\my\file\path\myfile.name
etc...

I know this should be fairly simple, but my mind is blank (if there's no
predefined function I know I should probably use some regex, but me and
regex don't get along (I always mess up)).

Any help will be greatly appreciated :-)

/Christian
