javascript onclick get image name without path

Question

I need to copy the name of the image (name + extension) from SRC attribute without path.. HTML:

 <input type="text" id="result" /><br /><br />

 <img src="../some_folder/some_folder/photo_name.jpg" onclick="getName()" id="img1" />

JS:

 function getName() {
    document.getElementById("result").value = document.getElementById("img1").src;
 }

This code clones full path of the image.. Path is not static, so I can not just cut rest of "SRC".. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You should try this code:

var filename = fullPath.replace(/^.*[\/]/, '');

Your JS function would be:

function getName() {
     var fullPath = document.getElementById("img1").src;
     var filename = fullPath.replace(/^.*[\/]/, '');
     // or, try this, 
     // var filename = fullPath.split("/").pop();

    document.getElementById("result").value = filename;
 }
