so I am trying to learn some string functions in PHP and came across a scenario I cannot figure out. I want to take a string like such: /var/www/html
and remove everything after the last forward slash (including the forward slash) so I end up with /var/www
What would be the best way to go about this?
Try using dirname
. It may handle special cases for you that you may not have anticipated if you went with a string manipulation route.
