remove "/" from dirname result

[nassoit]

How can I remove the "/" from the result of the following code:

$url = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$section = dirname ($url);

print ("$section");

thanks,
peter

this should work

$section = ereg_replace("^/?", "", $url); //remove first slash

Use str_replace instead of REGEX here.

$section = str_replace ("/","",$section);
