PHP+REGEX – URL validation & split to elements

Written by Garry Lachman (Admin). Posted on October 27, 2011. Filed under PHP + mySQL. Tagged , , , , . .

Hi,
After searching the web i found a very good script to split the url to elements and validate it.
The result is:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13

array(14) {
  ["scheme"]=>
  string(4) "http"
  ["authority"]=>
  string(17) "garry-lachman.com"
  ["userinfo"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["host"]=>
  string(17) "garry-lachman.com"
  ["IP_literal"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["IPV6address"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["ls32"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["IPvFuture"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["IPv4address"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["regname"]=>
  string(17) "garry-lachman.com"
  ["port"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["path_abempty"]=>
  string(12) "/2011/10/17/"
  ["query"]=>
  string(22) "test_querystring=value"
  ["url"]=>
  string(59) "http://garry-lachman.com/2011/10/17/?test_querystring=value"
}

The script:

“ereg is deprecated” warnings in PHP 5.3

Written by Garry Lachman (Admin). Posted on April 8, 2010. Filed under PHP + mySQL. Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , . .

If you try to install systems like OSCommerce on PHP 5.3.x you may got strange
error like “ereg is deprecated…”.

Here is the solution!!!

1
ereg('RegExp', $x $y);

becomes

1
preg_match('/RegExp/', $x $y);

dont forget “/ /” between the regexp code!!!

Same for “ereg_replace”

1
ereg_replace('RegExp', $x, $y);

becomes

1
preg_replace('/RegExp/', $x, $y);

Thanks,
Garry Lachman
