Removing 'http://' from link via REGEX
What I would like to do is remove the "http://" part of these autogenerated links, below is an example of it.
http://google.com/search?gc...
Here are the regexes I am using in PHP to generate these links from a URL.
$patterns_sp[5] = '~([\S]+)~';
$replaces_sp[5] = '<a href=\1 target="_blank">\1<br/>';
$patterns_sp[6] = '~(?<=\>)([\S]{1,25})[^\s]+~';
$replaces_sp[6] = '\1...</a><br/>';
When these patterns are run on a URL like this:
http://www.google.com/search?gcx=c&ix=c1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=regex
the REGEX gives me:
<a href="http://www.google.com/search?gcx=c&ix=c1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=regex" target="_blank">http://google.com/search?gc...</a>
Where I 开发者_如何学JAVAam stuck:
There is no obvious reason why I cannot modify the fourth line of code to read like this:
$patterns_sp[6] = '~(?<=\>http\:\/\/)([\S]{1,25})[^\s]+~';
However, the REGEX still seems to capture the "http://" part of the address, thus making a long list of these very redundant looking. What I am left with is the same thing as in the first example.
Replace...
$patterns_sp[5] = '~([\S]+)~';
...with...
$patterns_sp[5] = '~^(?:https?|ftp):([\S]+)~';
Then you can access the protocol-less version with $1
and the whole link with $0
.
Optionally, you can remove a leading protocol with something like...
preg_replace('/^(?:https?|ftp):/', '', $str);
I suggest not writing your own regex, instead have a look at http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php
Retrieve the components of the URL, then compose a new version that only contains the parts you want.
