Have a look at this:
function ValidateUrl($url) {
// Check the syntax
if
(!preg_match(!((https?|ftp)://)(www\.)?([a-zA-Z0-9/\-]*)+\.([a-zA-Z0-9/\-]*
)+([a-zA-Z0-9/\-\.]*)?!, $url)) {
return false;
}
// If it's correct, then try and open it
if (!@fopen($url, r)) {
return false;
}

I thought this would work but know

First of all, web server hostnames don't need to start with www.
Okay good point but still why doesn't it work ?
thanks
