Negative Grant.

It fails.

Look how many it missed, and how many funky names it allowed thru.

That's not what Purg asked:

To return the domain name, no matter the subdomain level, try this. It's not 100% perfect, but will cover 99% of all domains:

PHP Code:

  <?php

 
$domains = array("www.test.com","www.test2.co.uk","www.test3.info","www.test4.wz","www.test5.museum","http://test6.co.uk","test7.co.uk","http://www.test8.co.uk","really.long.sub.domain.here.test9.org.uk");

 
foreach($domains as $domain) {

    if(preg_match("/\.?([a-z0-9-]+)(\.(co|org|me|ltd|plc)\.[a-z]{2})$/i",$domain,$m)) {

        //we've matched a ******.co.** domain

        $dom = $m[1];

        $dom2 = $m[1].$m[2];

        //print_r($m);

    } else {

        //treat the domain as a .com/net/org/ws/biz/info

        preg_match("/\.?([a-z0-9-]+)(\.[a-z]{2,})$/i",$domain,$m);

        $dom = $m[1];

        $dom2 = $m[1].$m[2];

    }

    echo $domain.' ==> '.$dom2.' --> '.$dom.'<br />';

}

?>

www.test.com ==> test.com --> test
www.test2.co.uk ==> test2.co.uk --> test2
www.test3.info ==> test3.info --> test3
www.test4.wz ==> test4.wz --> test4
www.test5.museum ==> test5.museum --> test5
http://test6.co.uk ==> test6.co.uk --> test6
test7.co.uk ==> test7.co.uk --> test7
http://www.test8.co.uk ==> test8.co.uk --> test8
really.long.sub.domain.here.test9.org.uk ==> test9.org.uk --> test9

My bad,

I was concentrating on

Quote:

Ive also noticed $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] sometimes contains WWW. that needs stripping.

Assuming that it was the same sub.dom problem that keeps rearing its ugly head.

that 1% is what pisses me off :P.

I haven't tested this but looking at the regex (and i suck as regex), won't things like ?.uk.com, ?.gb.com and the funky names that likes still cause a fail (altho for the ?.gb/eu/uk/etc.com, an OR op like the co/org/etc could be added. (edited as I missed some of the regex ".[a-z]{2})" coz it went off screen, so that fixes the co.cctld).

Are there any other common ?.ccTLD ? I can only think of gov/plc/ltd/org/co/me/net/ac/edu, but they would be easy to add in to your code anyway. (edited again)

Anyway this is why I gave up and went slasher movie for my needs :P

p.s. sorry for jacking your thread your purg.

purg · 18-02-2009, 11:27:23 AM

Whizz... looks good for my needs. My site is almost complete for testing so will include your snippet before going live.

Skinner.... No problem, from your posts ive seen more into the problem than first thought. If the snippet posted by Whizz could be expanded to cover your needs everyone's a winner. Its this kind of post this keep me coming back to the AD forum. The AD community highlight flaws but also follow up by creating the fix for everyone to use.

(Also helps AD SEO which bring fresh meat into the mix)

It won't catch the .uk.com TLD's etc. It could be extended to do these.

The above is merely just a starting point

I will have a go at the .uk.com SLD's another time.

Hi Guys,

Keep in mind that eregi will be deprecated as of PHP 5.3.0 and completely removed as of PHP 6

A better solution would be PHP's parse_url function

PHP Code:

  $url = 'http://username:password@hostname/path?arg=value#anchor';

$parsed_url = parse_url($url); // This would return an array

 
print_r($parsed_url);

This would output

PHP Code:

  Array

(

    [scheme] => http

    [host] => hostname

    [user] => username

    [pass] => password

    [path] => /path

    [query] => arg=value

    [fragment] => anchor

)

If you wanted to output any of the values by themselves e.g. hostname

PHP Code:

  echo $parsed_url['host'];

or you can output a single value straight from the function

PHP Code:

  echo parse_url($url, PHP_URL_HOST); // This will output hostname

More info on the parse_url function can be found here

As for the OP's problem, you would then further process the output using something like Jeewhizz's solution above.

Hope this helps!

Craig
