String Changes

[Anon]

I need to be about to pull just the server portion of a given url.

example

www.myservername.com I need just myservername.com

ftp.myftpserver.com I need just myftpserver.com

thispage.thisserver.edu I need thisserver.edu

Thanks in advance

To get just myserver.com out of www.myserver.com/rest/of/path, try the folllowing:

<?
$url = "www.myserver.com/rest/of/path";
$var = parse_url($url);

$domain = $var['host'];

// the variable $domain now contains only www.myserver.com

$domain = split(".", $domain, 2)

// $domain is now an array containing 'www', 'myserver', and 'com' in separte elements
// to get the final product:

$end_result = $domain[1].'.'.$domain[2];

// $end_result is equal to myserver.com

?>

Hope this helps!!

Cheers,

Geoff

Opps..... made a mistake in the previous example🙁

The following line

     $domain = split(".", $domain, 2) 

should read instead

     $domain = split(".", $domain);

Sorry 'bout that!!
