Get the filename without extension from a filepath string

Question

How Do I find the name of the page title from $_SERVER['php_self']?

Let's say the $_SERVER shows my page like this: /application/mysite/signup.php.

How can I select the page title signup?

Answer 1

You can use basename:

echo basename($_SERVER['php_self'], '.php');

or pathinfo:

$pathInfo = pathinfo($_SERVER['php_self']);
echo $pathInfo['filename'];
