Hi, you can use preg_replace function to do the job in a single line.
Reference for further investigations:
http://www.php.net/manual/it/function.preg-replace.php
<?
/*
E.g:
$s = 'http://google.com';
echo remove_http($s);
output: google.com
*/
function remove_http($url='')
{
return preg_replace("/^https?:\/\/(.+)$/i","\\1", $url);
}
?>

this should be faster
<?php
/*
E.g:
$s = 'http://google.com';
echo remove_http($s);
output: google.com
*/
function remove_http($url = '')
{
return(str_replace(array('http://','https://'), '', $url));
}

I'd go with fain182's solution (above) as it is faster (as it doesn't have to load the regex engine) but would strtolower the url first or use str_ireplace() if these urls are coming from user input.

Should be faster, but if passes "http://example.com/?url=http://foo.com" url, the result could be wrong like "example.com/?url=foo.com". I'd use Eineki solution.

this would solve the problem without using regex, and using case-insensitive function
<?php
/*
E.g:
$s = 'http://google.com';
echo remove_http($s);
output: google.com
*/
function remove_http($url = '')
{
array('http://', 'https://');
foreach ($list as $word)
if (strncasecmp($url, $word, strlen($word)) == 0)
return substr($url, strlen($word));
return $url;
}

Got lot of coding options but i am not sure which to use for the best output. Still i have tried some which works fine.
Dim someURL, someQueryString, splitURL
someURL = "http://localhost/blabla.asp?f=foo&b=boo"
splitURL = split(someURL, "?")
someURL = splitURL(0)
If splitURL(1) <> "" Then
someQueryString = splitURL(1)
End if

@ Vipul : You'll have to work out on solving cannonical issue for your website. If you're running your website with PHP then you need to modify your .htaccess file and if your website has been developed in .NET then you need to configure setting in web.config file.
Let me know if you can't find out the solution.

Nice one, thanks very much for this - I've been trying to get something like this working for ages now, but it looks like fain182s version of this looks the best (mainly because it doesn't need to load the regex engine). Thanks fain182.
Ive made a function simply to remove the http string from a given url string.
Kindly see my code below. and is there other way to make it better or make it short?
Thanks
