strstr or something

[slimjim]

I am using this:

$url = (strstr($_POST["websiteurl"],"http://")!=""?"":"http://").$_POST["websiteurl"];

 

Only problem is that it not working correctly the way I need it too.

Oh it replaces the http:// if not there, but if a person forgets the :// or just the //, it adds the http:// to it anyway so I could end up with http://http:

 

I need help on this so in end result, of regardless of what they missed i has http"//

 

PLease help

So do you need something along the lines of a validator? See this topic.

Well actually I need it to see if any part of http:// is missing and then replace it if it is

[slimjim]

does anyone know how to do this ?
