[adam291086]

i have this url

 

/kunden/homepages/12/d214897219/htdocs/rubberduckiee/rubberduckiee/www.adamplowman.co.uk/random

 

and i want to remove the last part of the url i.e random. and then replace with a variable called $foldername

 

can anyone push me in the right directions?

Try this:

 

<?php
$url = "/kunden/homepages/12/d214897219/htdocs/rubberduckiee/rubberduckiee/www.adamplowman.co.uk/random";
$url = substr($url, 0, strrpos($url, '/') + 1);
$foldername = 'somefolder';
echo $url . $foldername;
?>

thanks for that i found that i could get away with using explode and then echoing the end($piece)
