parse_url would be a great place to start.

I don't think parse_url() can help with that.

something like:

Code: Select all

$urlparts = explode("/", $url);
will explode the $url into an array $urlparts where each array element will be formed by the occurrence of '/':

Code: Select all

$urlparts[0]=> http:/
$urlparts[1]=> ""
$urlparts[2]=> xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.com
$urlparts[3]=>mikhastar
$urlparts[4]=>pages
you can then echo $urlparts[4]; which will echo the last part of your string.
though there could be more efficient ways of doing this which i may not be aware of.
