Remove .jpg extension from path

What is the less expensive solution to remove ".jpg" extension from path, for example

lib/img/img.jpg  > lib/img/img

I will use it in loop 6 times, thats why i need a lightweight solution.

Honestly, six isn't much. Start optimizing when you have a loop that runs a thousand times at least.

Having said that, you're looking for pathinfo function.

The pathinfo native method is probably your best bet. The output is an array with components that you can then piece back together:

$parts = pathinfo("lib/img/img.jpg");
$result = $parts['dirname'] . '/' . $parts['filename'];

$result now contains your massaged filename.
