Which function for this little task?

Hi, real quickie guys

I need to turn

http://www.phpbuilder.com/

into....

www.phpbuilder.com

I know there are a few ways but as not done something like this before I thought I'd draw on a little of you're experience rather than experimenting with a half dozen different functions!

Cheers

Hey,

Use the parse_url() function. It returns an associative array. Example:

$url=parse_url('http://www.php.net/');

$url[scheme] = http
$url[host] = www.php.net
$url[path] = /

Good luck!

I thought I'd have to spend the next couple of hours messing aound with ereg_replace() or some such!

Thanks
