PHP get everything in a string before underscore

php, string, strpos, substr

Solution

You should simple use:

$imagePreFix = substr($fileinfo['basename'], 0, strpos($fileinfo['basename'], "_"));

I don't see any reason to use `explode` and create extra array just to get first element.

You can also use (in PHP 5.3+):

$imagePreFix = strstr($fileinfo['basename'], '_', true);

Problem

I have this code here: `$imagePreFix = substr($fileinfo['basename'], strpos($fileinfo['basename'], "_") +1);` this gets me everything after the underscore, but I am looking to get everything before the underscore, how would I adjust this code to get everything before the underscore? `$fileinfo['basename']` is equal to 'feature_00' Thanks
