How can I get the end of a string in PHP?

Substr PHP

I have a string like http://domain.sf/app_local.php/foo/bar/33.

The last characters are the id of an element. Its length could be more than one, so I can not use:

substr($dynamicstring, -1);

In this case, it must be:

substr($dynamicstring, -2);

How can I get the characters after "/bar/" on the string without depending on the length?

Solution

  • You can use explode(), like this:

    $id = explode('/',$var);

    And take the element where you had the id.
