[SOLVED] Geting domain from url help

[Imad]

Hi guys, I need help with getting a domain from a url.

Say the url was a domain like this: http://google.com/google.html

I converted it to using a pregmatch: http://google.com

 

The only problem I have is with subdomains and co.uk urls as well as with subdomains such as:

http://go.google.com/google.html

to make it:

http://go.google.com

And:

http://go.google.co.uk

Or:

http://www.go.google.co.uk

to end up as: http://go.google.co.uk

 

I made this code which is good for domains without subdomains:

$urls = 'http://google.com/google.com';

$regexmatch = '/.((([^.]+)\.){1})([a-zA-Z]{3,}|[^?]|[a-zA-Z.]{5,})/';
preg_match($regexmatch, "$urls", $matches);

 

Any help would be appreciated.

I should have clarified it better. I converted it to http://google.com I did misspell google, so I fixed it in my first post.

<?php
$url = "http://www.google.com/google.html";
if (substr($url, 0, 7) == "http://") {
    $slashpos = strpos($url, '/', ;
}
else {
    $slashpos = strpos($url, '/');
}
if ($slashpos) {
$domain = substr($url, 0, $slashpos);
}
else {
$domain = $url;
}
echo $domain;
?>

 

I could have written it better, but it gets the job done.

Thanks Darkwater, that did it. I wanted to do a pregmatch for a forward slash but that doesn't work. Now I know a new function that would actually make it work.

Thanks again,

Best Regards.

Maybe:

<?
$urls = 'http://go.google.com/google.com';

echo pathinfo($urls,1);
?>

Is that what you are looking for?

no, I was actually looking for something that would break a url down to the domain and provide only the domain.

Best Regards.

Thats what it does ???

Produces

http://go.google.com

Yes, but I modified what DarkWater gave me to add http:// if it doesn't exist and remove www. It can be done with yours as-well. There are so many ways to do things.

So mark this topic as "solved" I guess. =P
