To extract your portion of a string without the actual character you searched for, you can use:
<?php
$path = '/www/public_html/index.html';
$filename = substr(strrchr($path, "/"), 1);
echo $filename; // "index.html"
?>
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
strrchr — Trouve la dernière occurrence d'un caractère dans une chaîne
Retourne le segment de la chaîne
haystack
qui commence avec la
dernière occurrence de needle
, jusqu'à la fin
de la chaîne haystack
.
haystack
La chaîne dans laquelle on doit chercher.
needle
Si needle
contient plus d'un caractère,
seul le premier sera utilisé. Ce comportement est différent de celui de
strchr().
Antérieur à PHP 8.0.0, si needle
n'est pas une chaîne de caractères,
elle est convertie en un entier et appliqué en tant que valeur ordinal d'un caractère.
Ce comportement est obsolète à partir de PHP 7.3.0, et se fier à celui-ci
est fortement déconseillé. En fonction du comportement attendu,
needle
doit être transtypé explicitement en une chaîne de caractère,
ou un appel explicite à chr() doit être exécuté.
before_needle
Si true
, strrchr()
renvoie la partie du haystack
avant la
dernière occurrence de needdle
(à l'exclusion de cette dernière).
Retourne la portion de la chaîne, ou false
si
needle
n'est pas trouvé.
Version | Description |
---|---|
8.3.0 |
Le paramètre before_needle a été ajouté.
|
8.0.0 |
needle accepte désormais une chaîne vide.
|
8.0.0 |
Passing an entier as needle is no longer supported.
|
7.3.0 |
Passer un entier comme before_needle a été
rendu obsolète.

Exemple #1 Exemple avec strrchr()
<?php
$ext = strrchr('somefile.txt', '.');
echo "extension de fichier: $ext \n";
$ext = $ext ? strtolower(substr($ext, 1)) : '';
echo "extension de fichier: $ext";
?>
Résultat de l'exemple ci-dessus est similaire à :
extension de fichier: .txt extension de fichier: txt
Note: Cette fonction gère les chaînes binaires.

just a small addition to carlos dot lage at gmail dot com note which makes it a bit more useful and flexible:
<?php
// return everything up to last instance of needle
// use $trail to include needle chars including and past last needle
function reverse_strrchr($haystack, $needle, $trail) {
return strrpos($haystack, $needle) ? substr($haystack, 0, strrpos($haystack, $needle) + $trail) : false;
}
// usage:
$ns = (reverse_strrchr($_SERVER["SCRIPT_URI"], "/", 0));
$ns2 = (reverse_strrchr($_SERVER["SCRIPT_URI"], "/", 1));
echo($ns . "<br>" . $ns2);
?>
to: repley at freemail dot it
the code works very well, but as i was trying to cut script names (e.g.: $_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"] => /index.php, cut the string at "/" and return "index.php") it returned nothing (false). i've modified your code and now it works also if the needle is the first char.
- regards from germany
<?php
//strxchr(string haystack, string needle [, bool int leftinclusive [, bool int rightinclusive ]])
function strxchr($haystack, $needle, $l_inclusive = 0, $r_inclusive = 0){
if(strrpos($haystack, $needle)){
//Everything before last $needle in $haystack.
$left = substr($haystack, 0, strrpos($haystack, $needle) + $l_inclusive);
//Switch value of $r_inclusive from 0 to 1 and viceversa.
$r_inclusive = ($r_inclusive == 0) ? 1 : 0;
//Everything after last $needle in $haystack.
$right = substr(strrchr($haystack, $needle), $r_inclusive);
//Return $left and $right into an array.
return array($left, $right);
} else {
if(strrchr($haystack, $needle)) return array('', substr(strrchr($haystack, $needle), $r_inclusive));
else return false;
}

The function provided by marcokonopacki at hotmail dot com isn't really a reverse-version of strrchr(), rather a reverse version of strchr(). It returns everything from the start of $haystack up to the FIRST instance of the $needle. This is basically a reverse of the behavior which you expect from strchr(). A reverse version of strrchr() would return everything in $haystack up to the LAST instance of $needle, eg:
<?php
// reverse strrchr() - PHP v4.0b3 and above
function reverse_strrchr($haystack, $needle)
{
$pos = strrpos($haystack, $needle);
if($pos === false) {
return $haystack;
}
return substr($haystack, 0, $pos + 1);
}
?>
Note that this function will need to be modified slightly to work with pre 4.0b3 versions of PHP due to the return type of strrpos() ('0' is not necessarily 'false'). Check the documentation on strrpos() for more info.
A function like this can be useful for extracting the path to a script, for example:
<?
$string = "/path/to/the/file/filename.php";
echo reverse_strrchr($string, '/'); // will echo "/path/to/the/file/"
?>
$filename = 'strrchr_test.php';
print strrchr( $filename, '.' );
Result:
.php
$other_filename = 'strrchr_test.asp.php';
print strrchr( $other_filename, '.' );
Result:
.php

I had to make a slight change in your function for it to return the complete needle inclusive.
// Reverse search of strrchr.
function strrrchr($haystack,$needle)
{
// Returns everything before $needle (inclusive).
//return substr($haystack,0,strpos($haystack,$needle)+1);
// becomes
return substr($haystack,0,strpos($haystack,$needle)+strlen($needle));
}
Note: the +1 becomes +strlen($needle)
Otherwise it only returns the first character in needle backwards.
<?
// Reverse search of strrchr.
function strrrchr($haystack,$needle)
{
// Returns everything before $needle (inclusive).
return substr($haystack,0,strpos($haystack,$needle)+1);
}
$string = "FIELD NUMBER(9) NOT NULL";
echo strrrchr($string,")"); // Will print FIELD (9)
?>
I used dchris1 at bigpond dot net dot au 's reverse strrchr and reduced it to one line of code and fixed it's functionality - the real strrchr() returns FALSE if the needle is not found, not the haystack :)
<?php
// reverse strrchr()
function reverse_strrchr($haystack, $needle)
{
return strrpos($haystack, $needle) ? substr($haystack, 0, strrpos($haystack, $needle) +1 ) : false;
}
?>
strrchr is also very useful for finding the extension of a file. For example:
$ext = strrchr($filename, ".");
and $ext will contain the extension of the file, including a ".", if the file has an extension, and FALSE if the file has no extension. If the file has multiple extensions, such as "evilfile.jpg.vbs", then this construction will just return the last extension.
I think that a good way (I don't know if is the best one) to extract a portion from a string:
<?php
$image = "image.name.jpg";
// get file extension
preg_replace("/.*\.(.*)$/", "$1", $last);
// will result: jpg
?>
Is faster that substr(strrchr...
