I agree with Andy. I gave it a shot, however there are some problems, maybe you or someone can expound on it:

[code]
<?php

function strip($domain) {
$domain = str_replace("www.","",$domain);
return $domain;
}

echo strip(www.domain.com);

?>
[/code]

For some reason all the periods are not showing.

After applying what wildteen88 said:
[code]
<?php

function strip($domain) {
$domain = str_replace("www.","",$domain);
return $domain;
}

echo strip('www.domain.com');

?>
[/code]

When calling the function it should be this:
[code]echo strip('www.domain.com');[/code]

Otherwise PHP will try to find the constants www, domain and com and join them to gether. When using a string it must be in quotes.

Also I have modified your title, please try to use descriptive titles when posting threads.

Try this:
[code=php:0]function strip($domain)
{
    // get the segments of the url into an array
    // http://php.net/parse-url - for more info
    $url = parse_url($domain);

    $domain = str_replace("www.", "", $url['host']);

    return $domain;
}

echo strip('http://www.domain.com');
[/code]

Try something like this. This regexp removes the HTTP:// and the WWW. if it´s present in the link

ex:
[code=php:0]$string = "Here´s a string with a link to www.somesite.com bla bla";
echo preg_replace('/(http:\/\/)?www\.([-a-z0-9_][-a-z0-9_\.]+\.[a-z]{2,4}(\/[-a-z0-9_\.%&+\/=&]+)?)/is', '\\2', $string);[/code]

Are yes, Just noticed that it only works if you have www. after http://. All whats needed is a tweak in the expression to get it to work, which I am trying to work on now.

try this:
[code=php:0]$string = "Here´s a http://www.mysite.com string with a link to www.somesite.com bla bla";

echo preg_replace('/(http:\/\/www.|http:\/\/|www\.)([-a-z0-9_][-a-z0-9_\.]+\.[a-z]{2,4}(\/[-a-z0-9_\.%&+\/=&]+)?)/is', '\\2', $string);[/code]


I did it the long way, using (http:\/\/www.|http:\/\/|www\.), it can be shortened but I'm an new to expressions
