Function Problem

[mssakib]

HI

This function is to check a site/ip's ping time in ms

 

But it wont work if  i add http:// . It works for google.com but if i add http://google.com it wont work.

 

Here is the function

 

 

 

function ping($host, $port, $timeout) { 

  $tB = microtime(true); 

  $fP = fSockOpen($host, $port, $errno, $errstr, $timeout); 

  $errMsg = 'The Site is Down</p>';

  if (!$fP) { return $errMsg; } 

  $tA = microtime(true); 

  $reSult= round((($tA - $tB) * 1000), 0);

  return $result;

}

 

 

Need help guys

So what is the problem? Simply leave out http://. fsockopen only takes a server address.

But i want to use http:// any way to do so ?

You can't have it in there. Period. Why do you think you want it?

[mssakib]

I added that fuction to a website. But Some users are adding site using http://

So there's a fairly obvious step to take....

You can use str_replace.For e.g

<?php
echo str_replace("Coder","Developer","Buzzy Coder");
?>

On above code,I had replaced string from "Buzzy Coder" to "Buzzy Developer".I had just changed a word "Coder" to "Developer".You can use below code as an example for your issue.

<?php
echo str_replace("http://","","http://www.google.com");
?>

Add above code to your POST or GET method variable,from which you're getting the user input.

 

Hope it helps you!

if( $host = parse_url($host, PHP_URL_HOST) ) {

    //host is good

} else {

    //host is bad

}
