help with regex

im having a hard time with regex… how do i get the actual text which is the website for example http://www.test.com from this string line?

or i need to get the string between

by the way, the URL is not constant

I am not that great with Regular expressions, but if you KNOW you want the string between (and it’s consistently that way), you could make use of the strpos http://us2.php.net/strpos , the stristr http://us2.php.net/stristr to manipulate the text string and get the info that you want. Also could look at using substr in conjunction with the above

Regular expressions are tricky business, they’re very powerful and it’s very easy to not exactly get the desired result (greedy for example :wink: took me ages before I finally got the greediness out of a similar regex to what you seem to need). Just thought you should know that.
