How to get the file name from a full path using JavaScript?

Question

Is there a way that I can get the last value (based on the \'\\\' symbol) from a full path?

Example:

C:\\Documents and Settings\\img\\recycled log.jpg<

Answer 1

function getFileName(path, isExtension){

  var fullFileName, fileNameWithoutExtension;

  // replace \ to /
  while( path.indexOf("\\") !== -1 ){
    path = path.replace("\\", "/");
  }

  fullFileName = path.split("/").pop();
  return (isExtension) ? fullFileName : fullFileName.slice( 0, fullFileName.lastIndexOf(".") );
}
