Hi. I'm taking my first venture into Wordpress, I'm getting there gradually. I've come to a little problem I can't figure out how to do, I'm sure it's possible though.

 

Basically I want to run the loop and get the_content() from it, the content is a url within a <p> tag. What I would like to do is strip the <p> tags, the "http://"(and "www." if there) and anything after the domain name.

 

For example: from "<p>http://www.thisisamightysite.com/epicpost/uber.php</p>" to "thisisamightysite.com"

 

I'm sure there's something built into php but can't quite get my Google skills to find it

 

Any help would be great.

 

Cheers,

~evu.

You want strip_tags() and parse_url().

I'll check those out now, thanks dude!

 

eD: rd is a winner. Thanks alot.

 

For anyone interested:

 

<?php $content = parse_url(strip_tags(get_the_content()));  echo $content['host']; ?>
