$fileName (.jpg to .psd)

[forcer]

i use $fileName to get the filename of the images in a folder which typically are .jpg

and i have a download link to download the .jpg

<a href=\"$fileName\">DOWNLOAD IMAGE</a>

and that will make the link name.jpg

but how can i get it to change .jpg to .psd for another link

($fileName, ".jpg" = false)

echo "<a href=\" .$fileName. ".psd">DOWNLOAD PSD</a>";

i know thats wrong(just to make my example better), is there a way i can fix this?

any help appreciated

Hi,
strrpos() function is what you need. You can use this function to get the position of ".". Then you can use substr() to get the name without extension.

I hope this helps...

if (strpos($fileName, "jpg") === false)

like that?.. i aint very experienced with this stuff

heres the full echo

could you help me a little further

	  echo "<table width=\"32%\" height=\"80\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"2\">
			<tr> 
   			<td height=\"55\"> <p><img src=\"$path/$fileName\" border=0 alt=\"$count\"> 
        	<br>
       		<small>$x</small></p></td>
  			</tr>
			<tr> 
    		<td height=\"19\"><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"><a href=\"$path/$fileName\">Download Image</a> | Download PSD | <a href=\"upload.php\">Upload PSD</a></font></td>
			</tr>
			</table>";

Well.
You have a name like this
"image1.jpg".

You can use strrpos (with "r" for reverse...) to get the position of "."
Because strrpos counts from the end, we need to subtract to strlen:

 
$mpos=strrpos($filename,".");
$mpos=strlen($filename)-$mpos;

Now we can divide the name from extension:

$basename=substr($filename,0,$mpos);

And we can now echo this:

<?echo "<a href=\"$path/$basename.jpg\">Download Image</a> | href=\"$path/$basename.psd\">Download PSD </a>|" 
?>

Maybe I'm wrong for a +1 or -1, but with some test you can easily debug it.

ok its all working thanx

for any1 wanting to know for educational purposes:

the second line was deviding into the wrong place so i simply removed it. also since the statement was nly being used once i could convert it to one like instead

$basename = substr($fileName, 0, strrpos($fileName,"."));

many thanx for help

Ah! my bad.
Strrpos don't count from the end, but from begin... 🙁

bye bye
