get site name from url

[ohdang888]

say i have this:

 

$str = "http://blog.example.com/10/234/post/345.html" or anything like this.

 

how would i extract the "http://blog.example.com/" from it?

 

but this is just an example... i need it to work for any subdomain name and any ending (.com, .net, .info, etc)

 

Thanks!

You can try and use parse_url and call the array object like:

 

$parsed['subdomain'];

 

Which should pull out "blog".
