remove last part of email address

[schwooba@gmail.com]

Is there a simple way to remove the last part of an email address using
PHP. I want to remove the @ symbol and everything to the right of it.
Any ideas?

Example:

thomas@xyz.com

should be:

thomas

Thanks!

This is one way of doing it...

$temp = explode("@", $email);
echo $temp[0];

Someone here will inevitably suggest a regex, but that's overkill:

$email = 'foo@bar.com';
$username = substr($email, 0, strpos($email, '@'));

matturbanowski "explode" option worked great. Thanks for everyone's
input.
