[Resolved] best way to get file name?

[bike5]

I am trying to get the current files name, only the file name including extension.

I tried

basename(dirname(FILE))

but it stripped out my underscores.

document_five would end up being documentfive.

How do I get the file name without stripping underscores?

Edit - Something else weird is going on cause I used it on another page and it gave me the same info from the previous page... I am using that code via include. Anyway, whats the best way to get the name even disreguarding the rest of the post?

thats weird. basename() should not strip underscores. its never done that for me.

i dont know why your using dirname() though if you want the filename.......

you could also try pathinfo()

if that doesnt work,

maybe try

echo end(explode('/', __FILE__));

not sure what you meant by the last part of you post, but FILE should give you the filename of the file where you call it from. it should NOT change whether your including a file or not. if your looking for the name of the script which was executed FIRST, use $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

Thanks, I tried the expolde file and found the slash seperator was backslash for my localserver and forward slash when I tried online. So I tried

echo end(explode('/',$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']));

and it did the trick.
