Hi,

I want to remove the end of an URL (e.g. delete /bla/bibi/test.html in [example.com...] How can I do this in php?

Here you go -

$arr =parse_url('http://www.example.com/bla/bibi/test.html');
$host = $arr['host'];

$host now holds literal "www.example.com"

You could add the scheme back in as well:

<?php 
$arr = parse_url [php.net]('http://www.example.com/bla/bibi/test.html'); 
$scheme = $arr['scheme']; 
$host = $arr['host']; 
print $scheme.'://'.$host; // "http://www.example.com" 
?>
