get 3 characters after the "."

[Spidy6123]

Hi everyone..

Just looking for a little help with regards to retrieving a character string.

I'm trying to get the 3 characters after a "." within a string..

just like a MID() function in VBA.. just not sure how to look for the period and then pick up the 3 chars.

any help or advice is appreciated.

Thanks
-Peter

$fileext2 = substr(strrchr($row['banner_image'], "-"), 1);
