removing extensions form a filename

[kumarsena]

heys guys,

i need a way to remove teh .txt extension from a filename and possibly replace it with .cnt or something.

its for a comment system that takes the article file name and then opens the corresponding comment file and then prints the stuff.

any sugesstions to the whole script also apreciated,

tnx

open file
grab content
close file
open new file pointer
write data
close file
delete old file

seems straight forward enough

fopen()
file_get_contents() or file() or fread()
fclose()
fopen()
fwrite()
fclose()
unlink()

i thought of ereg_replace

How about just include() it?
