maybe that's hard to find, if you don't know about regular expressions: that's what i found on php.net:

<?php
// get Hostname
preg_match("/^(http:\/\/)?([^\/]+)/i",
"

http://www.php.net/index.html",

$treffer);
$host = $treffer[2];

// get last two segs from hostname
preg_match("/[^\.\/]+\.[^\.\/]+$/", $host, $treffer);
echo "Domain-Name: {$treffer[0]}\n";
?>

so this should extract "yahoo.com", i'm sure you can change it to what you want...

couldn't help it and had to find the correct regex, which just differed by one pair of brackets, so here's the solution:

<?php
// den Hostnamen aus URL holen
preg_match("/^(http:\/\/)?([^\/]+)/i",
"

http://www.php.net/index.html",

$treffer);
$host = $treffer[2];

// die letzten beiden Segmente aus Hostnamen holen
preg_match("/([^\.\/]+)\.[^\.\/]+$/", $host, $treffer);
echo "Der Domänen-Name lautet: {$treffer[1]}\n";
?>

enjoy!

Take a look at the parse_url() function <
