Re: [PHP] Checking url validation
Try an extra layer of parens:
if (($fp = fopen(http://www.anyurl.com;, r) == NULL)
{
echo not valid;
}
else
{
echo this is a valid url;
}

I always get a not valid message. What am I doing wrong? Is there a better
way to do this?

RE: [PHP] checking url
well, you can try fsockopen. see it on php.net/fsockopen it will even return you an error if not connected. start from the example describing the function on PHP.net/fsockopen (did I misspelled it?)

Re: [PHP] checking url
Hi Dmitry, In case you want a regular expression to check if it is a valid url you can try this... $url = yoururl; if(empty($url) !eregi(^http://[A-Za-z0-9\%\?\_\:\~\/\.-]+$,$url)) $errmsg=$url doesn't look like a valid URL\n; I hope this helps.

Re: [PHP] checking url
How do you mean, check? Do you want to use a regular expression to see if it's a valid URL, or do you want to open a connection to it and see if the site actually exists? -- Plutarck Should be working on something... ...but forgot what it was.
