Detect Current Directory Name?

[smilepak]

What is the easiest way to determine the current path name with PHP?

Option #1 - $current_path = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']

Option #2 - opendir / readdir ?

Is there another one?

For me right now I am using option one and truncate out the PHP filename, reverse, split, reverse again to get the current path name...

Is there a better one?

You can use:

basename(dirname(__FILE__))
