[PHP] Testing a URL with regex

2009-01-07 Thread Sn!per

Let's say I have these URLs

http://example.com/index.php?q=gallery
http://example.com/index.php?q=galleryg2_itemId=81
http://example.com/index.php?q=galleryg2_itemId=100

I want to have a line of code that will extract just the  
http://example.com/index.php?q=gallery; part of the URL.


I am never good with regex, please help. TIA.

Why do you need a regex here? All the URL's have the same foremost
component, which is exactly 38 characters in length. Do you perchance
need a regualr expression to parse other URL's?

If you just need to extract everything before the first ampersand, then
strpos and substr would be the best to use.
