[SOLVED] a little help using preg match

[djtozz]

lets say  I want I want to grab the filename (last part)  from following url format:

 

mysite.com/dl/10587125/09c6247/filename.html

 

then i was hoping following code should do it:

 

preg_match("/mysite\.com\/dl\/\d+\/w+\/(.+)/",$words,$match);

 

But this gives me a blank result insteed of 'filename.html"

 

Am I missing something?

Do you have to use regex?

 

$path = "mysite.com/dl/10587125/09c6247/filename.html"

$filename = basename($path);

Thanks for your help,

it is actually part of a code to calculate  "$caption"

The first part of the code works like a charm (type==1 rapidshare)

 

The second part (type==2 hotfile) gives me a a empty record, not sure what's wrong..

 

$caption='';
			if($type==1)
			{
				$words=$links[$j];
				preg_match("/rapidshare\.com\/files\/\d+\/(.+)/",$words,$match);
				unset($words);
				$words=$match[1];
				unset($match);
				$words=preg_split("/[_\.\-]/",$words);
				$lastword=array_pop($words);
				if($lastword=="html") array_pop($words);
				$words=implode(" ",$words);
				$words=preg_replace("/\s{2,}/"," ",$words);
				$caption=mysql_real_escape_string($words);
				unset($words);

			}

			if($type==2)
			{
				$words=$links[$j];
				preg_match("/hotfile\.com\/dl\/\d+\/w+\/(.+)/",$words,$match);
				unset($words);
				$words=$match[2];
				unset($match);
				$words=preg_split("/[_\.\-]/",$words);
				$lastword=array_pop($words);
				if($lastword=="html") array_pop($words);
				$words=implode(" ",$words);
				$words=preg_replace("/\s{2,}/"," ",$words);
				$caption=mysql_real_escape_string($words);
				unset($words);
			}

preg_match("/.*\/(.*)$/i",$path,$m);
