How would I Get rid of a part?

[Joshua F]

I am having problems making it so that if I typed site.php?url=http://example.com it would auto get rid of the http://.

 

Here's my code.

 

$url="{$_GET['url']}";
str_replace('http://', '', $url);
echo "<a href=\"http://$url\">$url</a>";

Your not using the data returned by str_replace.

 

$url="{$_GET['url']}";
$url = str_replace('http://', '', $url);
echo "<a href=\"http://$url\">$url</a>";

Ahh, I feel dumb. Forgot about that.
