how to return the file's path without the file's basename?

I have a long path for a file, for instance,

http://www.mysite.com/local/views/templates/home.php

and I use basename() to return the file itself only,

<?php echo basename($file);?>

But how can I return the file's path without the file's basename like the line below?

http://www.mysite.com/local/views/templates/

You are looking for dirname (although it doesn't leave a trailing slash).

See it in action.
