[SOLVED] Trimming the input from an HTML form

[ArizonaJohn]

Hello,

 

The form below takes input from the user, and adds a row to a table in a MySQL database.  It works great.  However, I would like to modify the user's input as follows:

 

1.  If the user's input starts with "http://" I would like to remove the "http://".

2.  If the user's input starts with "http://www." I would like to remove the "http://www.".

2.  If the user's input starts with "www." I would like to remove the "www.".

 

How can I do this?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

John

 

<form action="process.php" method="post">
Add a website to this category: <input name="site" type="text" size="50">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form> 

<?
$site=$_POST['site'];
mysql_connect("mysqlv3", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("sand2") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `santafe` VALUES (NULL, '$site',1,0)");


?>

<?php
$remove_array = array('http://www.', 'http://', 'www.');
$site = str_replace($remove_array, "", $_POST['site']);
