Answer 1

Usually you don't use a regular expression.

The following is a popular method instead:

$extension=pathinfo($filename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

Answer 2

pathinfo is the easiest solution, but you can also use fnmatch

if( fnmatch('*.php', $filename) ) { /* do something */ }

---

EDIT: Like @zombat points out in the comments, if you are after a fast solution, then the following is faster than using pathinfo and fnmatch :

if( substr($filename, -4) === '.php' ) { /* do something */ }

Keep in mind that pathinfo , unlike fnmatch and substr does a basename check on the path you provide, which makes it somewhat cleaner in my opinion.

Answer 3

/\.php$/

但扩展映射并不能确保内容符合您的期望，只是文件以特定方式命名。
