Cut off beginning of URL in string

schwa97

Hi,

I'm rather new at the PHP stuff, so I hope this isn't a really stupid question.

In my script I have strings that contain an URL. I want to loose the first part of the string, which is always the same.

For example:
http://www.mydomain.com/images/image1.jpg
should become:
images/image1.jpg

Can anyone explain me how to do this?

Thanks!

How is it getting in there if you don't need it? What exactly are you trying to do? You can find string functions to manipulate the string, but that seems like a kludge in this instance

The string is a result of a database-query. It fetches the field URL, which contains the whole URL.

I'm using another script to thumbnail the image and somehow it doesn't work if you enter the whole URL. You have to use the relative path...

I got it working.

Thanks for the tip to use strstr, it works!
