hi,


i want to print the file name with out extension.here is my code for getting the extension.but how i can get only file name without extension

<?php
$file = "welcome.txt";
$aFile = explode(".", $file);
$ext = array_pop($aFile);
echo $ext;
?>

any of your idea will be appreciated.

That code does remove the file extension.. Do you mean print it with the extension? To do that, just echo the filename without the code to remove everything past the period:

<?php
$file = "welcome.txt";
echo $file;
?>

function fileNameParts($file)
{
$parts = explode('.', basename($file));
$result['ext'] = (count($parts) > 1) ? array_pop($parts) : '';
$result['base'] = implode('.', $parts);
return($result);
}
// usage:
$parts = fileNameParts('example.file_name.txt');
echo "file name without extension: " . $parts['base'];
echo "<br>file name extension: " . $parts['ext'];
