How to get folder name from url address

URL of my site is: 

http://mc.net46.net/ + folderName + fileName

For example: 

http://mc.net46.net/mc/file01.php
http://mc.net46.net/mx/file05.php

folderName is always two characters long.

$address = 'http://mc.net46.net'.$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];

result: http://mc.net46.net/mc/file01.php - ok

$fname = substr($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"],strrpos($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"],"/")+1);

result: file01.php - ok

Two questions:

Is this the correct way to get $address and $fname ?

How to get folderName?

Try this for another way to get your dynamic file names:

    <?php

    $fname = "http://mc.net46.net/mc/file01.php";
OR 
    $fname = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
    $stack = explode('/', $fname);
    $ss = end($stack);
    echo $ss;

    ?>

Here for $fname you can use this $fname = explode('/', $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]);

try

function getUriSegment($n) {
    $segs = explode("/", parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH));
    return count($segs)>0 && count($segs)>=($n-1)?$segs[$n] : '';
}

// if the url is http://www.example.com/foo/bar/wow

echo getUriSegment(1); //returns foo
echo getUriSegment(2); //returns bar

Getting the address looks correct to me. However, you can get the $fname and the folder name easily using explode, and array_pop

$stack = explode('/', $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]);
$fname = array_pop($stack);
$folderName = array_pop($stack);

EDIT:

Explaining how does this work: the explode function will split the URI into ['', 'mc', 'file01.php'] for example. Now the function array_pop takes out the last element ($fname = 'file01.php') from the array, that means after the first call the array will be ['', 'mc'], and repeating the same action in the second call will will take out ($folderName = 'mc') as it will be the last element in the array and leave [''].

Use basename

$fname = basename("http://mc.net46.net/mc/file01.php")

 RESULT = file01.php
