PHP get image file path?

Question

Example:

Image URL:

localhost/example/folder/filename.jpg 

I want to get the path to the image so that it is:

 localhost/example/folder/ 

How to do it?

My English is poor. Thanks!

I found a solution instead of using dirname:

 $image = 'localhost/example/folder/filename.jpg'; $directory = substr($image, 0, strrpos($image, '/', -2) + 1 ); echo $directory; //return: localhost/example/folder/ 

Answer 1

To get the parent folder of a file:

 dirname("localhost/example/folder/filename.jpg"); 

See: document

Answer 2

Use dirname()

 <?php echo dirname('localhost/example/folder/filename.jpg'); ?>
