onsubmit rewrite?

Hey everyone,

I am currently setting up WHMCS and I'm working on the domain checker. The input on the form accepts URL's without "www." so will it be possible to use either javascript or php for example to remove this on submit?

So for example a visitor enters "www.domainexample.com", clicks "Check Availability" and the form removes the "www." and posts just "domainexample.com".

I usually get things done without having to ask questions and can usually find answers to things using Google but I already did some looking around and can't find anything on this.

Regards,
Shane

 

Hi,

It is very much possible.
Define a javascript function to get the index of . and then replace the substring till that index with null.

var url="www.abc.com";
var temp = url.substr(url.indexOf('.')+1);
var domain = url.replace(temp,"");

Code (markup):

Hope it answers your question.
Thanks

 

Modify this and place this above the code that handles the form data.

$domain = parse_url('http://www.google.com', PHP_URL_HOST);
$domain = preg_replace('/^(www\.)/i', '', $domain);

Code (markup):

it will remove (http:://, www and trailing slash)
