preg_matching a website address?

[Monkuar]

I need to use preg_match, to check if "mywebsite.com" exists inside a string.

 

how would do I go about that?

 

Im not looking to validate urls, im just looking to see if the string has mywebsite.com in it, if true, i can use w/e, or return false.

 

Thanks

 

hmm would strpos or strmatch work ?

 

Something like this

 

if (preg_match("/http://mysite.com/i", "GOBBLYBLUETEXTHEREBLABLAH")) {
    echo "A match was found.";
} else {
    echo "A match was not found.";
}

 

 

actually would that work?, lmk ima be testing

Try this

 

if (stristr("http://mysite.com", "GOBBLYBLUETEXTHEREBLABLAH")) {
    echo "A match was found.";
} else {
    echo "A match was not found.";
}

stripos would be faster and less resource intensive.

 

if ( stripos($haystack, $needle) === FALSE ) {
      // not found
} else {
      // found
}

Sir,

that means my example which is used by stristr() is not sufficient ?
