http_referer

gofox

I need to weed out the url retrieved by http_referer, I don't care what page they came from just what the main site is. They will have reps coming to our site and each will have a diff. xxx.htm and I just need to verify the main site???
Thanks

Did you mean you only want the domain?And not the whole url? If my guess's correct, perhaps this is what you wanted.

$test=explode($the_url,"/");
$domain=$test[0];

gofox

correct, am I replacing $the_url or $domain with a actual url??

$the_url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$parts = explode($the_url,"/");
$domain=$parts[0];

Is that clearer?

Have you tried the parse_url function?

Kinda, I am missing something though, I can't get the url to to print ot the page without the extention. What am I missing? Or what else do I need?
