that string doesn't contain what you think it does:
>>> filepath='c:\documents\web\zope\file.ext'
>>> filepath
'c:\\documents\\web\\zope\x0cile.ext'
>>> print filepath
c:\documents\web\zope?ile.ext
if you fix that, you can use os.path.basename() to strip off the last
part:
>>> filepath=r'c:\documents\web\zope\file.ext'
>>> filepath
'c:\\documents\\web\\zope\\file.ext'
>>> print filepath
c:\documents\web\zope\file.ext
>>> import os
>>> os.path.basename(filepath)
'file.ext'
