Got a small problem. What if the filename is unknown for instance, if all you have is the name or rather the directory path? Using your example, $parts = pathinfo('/var/website/htdocs/index.php'); Lets imagine we didn't know the name of the file (index.php) but you have the directory (/var/website/htdocs/) how would you access it?
