Request uri in array

With a URI such as /test/test/test, I would like a way to create an array from $__SERVER['request_uri'] such as this:

[0] => '/' [1] => /test/ [2] => /test/test/ [3] => /test/test/test/

Any help would be appreciated!

A quick an dirty script I just created for you:

<?
        $path = "/test/test2/test3";
        $arr = explode("/", $path);

        $arraynew = array();

        $i=0;
        foreach ($arr as $k => $v) {
                if (($k==0) && ($v=="")) {
                        $arraynew[$i] = "/";
                        $i++;
                        continue;
                }
                if ($i == 1) {
                        $arraynew[$i] = $arraynew[$i-1] . $v;
                } else {
                        $arraynew[$i] = $arraynew[$i-1] . "/" . $v;
                }
                $i++;
        }

        print_r($arraynew);
?>

Or this one that's more clean and simple and adds "/" at the end:

<?
        $path = "/test/test2/test3";
        $arr = explode("/", $path);

        $arraynew = array();

        $i=0;
        foreach ($arr as $k => $v) {
                $i > 0 ? $arraynew[] = $arraynew[$i-1] . $v . "/" : $arraynew[] = "/";

                $i++;
        }

        print_r($arraynew);
?>

Look up the dirname() function.

It gives you the parent directory of any given filename or directory name.

In your case, simply use it repeatedly (in a loop) to get each successive parent folder name.
