Regex for dropping http:// and www. from URLs

Question

I have a bunch of urls like these.

  $urls = array(
    \'https://site1.com\',
    \'https://www.site2.com\',
    \'http://www.site3.com\',
    \'https://sit         


        

Answer 1

preg_replace can also take an array, so you don't even need the loop. You can do this with a one liner:

$urls = preg_replace('/(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:www\.)?(.*)\/?$/i', '$1', $urls);
