get and delete last word in URL

get last word in URL and delete what is not necessary

if in $last_word you find also -0.htm then delete -0.htm
I explain my $last_word now shows test-0.htm
But I do not need -0.htm
I only need "test".

How do I say in PHP to delete -0.html and to grab only "test".

$last_word="-0.html";
$last_word = str_replace(array('-0.html','-0.htm'), '', $last_word);

It will replace the string (-0.html or -0.htm) even if found somewhere else than at the end of $last_word




Trying to remove -0.htm at the end of $last_word:

Regex is an easy way to go:

$last_word = preg_replace('/\-0\.htm$/', '', $last_word);

The $ means 'the end', which means the -0.htm has be be at the end.
If instead of -0.htm you want to remove -0.html:

$last_word = preg_replace('/\-0\.html$/', '', $last_word);
