[PHP] Getting The Extension Of A File

[Jordan]

Just thought I'd share this very quickly. Works nicely when verifying file types.

The following would display the extension, "bar" from the filename, "TheFileName.foo.bar"

<?php

//Replace with subject filename
$fName = "TheFileName.foo.bar";

//Splits up the filename
$fNameExp = explode(".", $fName);

//How many parts?
$fNameCount = count($fNameExp);

//Get the last bit
$fExt = $fNameExp[$fNameCount-1];

echo($fExt);

?>
