[SOLVED] more fine tuning substr I will get it sooner or later.

[Looktrne]

ok here is a tough one for me..

 

I need to strip this string

 

http://www.nosite.net/members/index.php?page=whos_online

 

it needs to become

 

nosite.net

 

I also need to strip it to just:

 

http://www.nosite.net

 

keep in mind that this may or may not contain the www. and it needs to cut the string from the / but leave the first double // along

 

any ideas?

There is an inbuilt mechanism to parse URL's in PHP that could do what you need.

 

http://uk3.php.net/function.parse-url

this code worked for cleaning a url

 

 $code="http://abmatch.com/index.php?page=contact";
  $mem	= strpos($code, "//"); 
  $code	= substr($code, ($mem)+2, strlen($code)); 

  $mem	= strpos($code, "/"); 
  $code	= substr($code, 0, $mem); 

 

thanks
