preg_replace

[n_wattam]

Can someone help with this please.

i want to use preg_replace to convert an input like

http://www.yourdomain.com/site1/index.php

into this

yourdomain.com/site1/

What i want to loose is any reference to http:// , www. and any file i just want to keep domain names, and folder paths

This could probably be cleaned up, but here's what I came up with:

$url = 'http://www.yourdomain.com/site1/index.php';

$pattern = '@(?:http://)?(?:www\.)?(.+[/])(?:.*\..*)?@i';
preg_match($pattern, $url, $matches);

echo $matches[1];

$filtered = preg_replace('#(ftp|https?)://(www\.)?#i', '', $text);

Hi, cheers for this,

I've just ran some tests on it, and the only problem i find is, if you run it on say just the domain, or a path which doesnt have a "/" at the end, it ignores whats before it

Any ideas?

That doesnt seam to loose the file at the end if it finds one

[NogDog]

$filtered = preg_replace(
   '#(?:ftp|https?)://(?:www\.)?((?:[^/\s]+/)+)(?:[^\s]+(?:\.[^\s]+)*)?#i', 
   '\\1', $text);

Hi NogDog,

Cheers for the update, getting same problems with yours.

1). if you have a path after the domain name which doesnt have a "/" at the end, it then looses that path.

http://www.yourdomain.com/site => yourdomain.com/

2). if you just have the domain name with a "/" at the end it gets rid of the http and the www. but leaves a "/" at the end.

http://www.yourdomain.com/ => yourdomain.com/

3). if you dont have a have a "/" at the end, then it doesnt get rid of the http:// or the www.

http://www.yourdomain.com => http://www.yourdomain.com

Examples of what i want to covert too.

http://www.yourdomain.com/site1/index.php => yourdomain.com/site1/

http://www.yourdomain.com/site1/ => yourdomain.com/site1/

http://www.yourdomain.com/site1 => yourdomain.com/site1

http://www.yourdomain.com/ => yourdomain.com/
