using __FILE__

[Chad Lupkes]

Hi everyone,

I want to create a script that will determine where in an array or
database to find information based on the name of the file. I have
the reference working, but it's giving me too much information.

<?
$f = __FILE__;
print $f
?>

gives me

/home/calador/public_html/wapolitics/counties/adams.php

All I want is "adams".

Any ideas?

All your basename() are quite helpful in this instance...

Hi Rudy,

I found that, and it helped. I just posted another question about arrays as
a follow up.

Thanks!
