replace characters starting from undercore

[gsaray101]

There is a file name like servername_2008 0506.sql. I would like to remove every character starting from underscore, just leaving the servername. Can somebody help me with this in php?

Thanks,

mike

I have one more question:

The reason I removed _numbers is to login to ftp server, search for file names matches the servername and remove them.

then ftp_put the current file. I want to keep one copy on the ftp server.

Can I do?

ftp_delete($con n_id, $file*)

$file is the server name part.

I am basically trying to do what mdel does in regular ftp program:

ftp ftp.server.com
prompt
mdel servername*

file name is in this format: servername_date .sql

Before uploading files to the ftp server, I would like to be able to remove the previous version to only keep one copy in the ftp server.

can anybody help?
