url_to_absolute( $baseUrl, $relativeUrl ) X-Ref |
Combine a base URL and a relative URL to produce a new absolute URL. The base URL is often the URL of a page, and the relative URL is a URL embedded on that page. This function implements the "absolutize" algorithm from the RFC3986 specification for URLs. This function supports multi-byte characters with the UTF-8 encoding, per the URL specification. Parameters: baseUrl the absolute base URL. url the relative URL to convert. Return values: An absolute URL that combines parts of the base and relative URLs, or FALSE if the base URL is not absolute or if either URL cannot be parsed. |
url_remove_dot_segments( $path ) X-Ref |
Filter out "." and ".." segments from a URL's path and return the result. This function implements the "remove_dot_segments" algorithm from the RFC3986 specification for URLs. This function supports multi-byte characters with the UTF-8 encoding, per the URL specification. Parameters: path the path to filter Return values: The filtered path with "." and ".." removed. |
split_url( $url, $decode=FALSE) X-Ref |
This function parses an absolute or relative URL and splits it into individual components. RFC3986 specifies the components of a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). A portion of the ABNFs are repeated here: URI-reference = URI / relative-ref URI = scheme ":" hier-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ] relative-ref = relative-part [ "?" query ] [ "#" fragment ] hier-part = "//" authority path-abempty / path-absolute / path-rootless / path-empty relative-part = "//" authority path-abempty / path-absolute / path-noscheme / path-empty authority = [ userinfo "@" ] host [ ":" port ] So, a URL has the following major components: scheme The name of a method used to interpret the rest of the URL. Examples: "http", "https", "mailto", "file'. authority The name of the authority governing the URL's name space. Examples: "example.com", "user@example.com", "example.com:80", "user:password@example.com:80". The authority may include a host name, port number, user name, and password. The host may be a name, an IPv4 numeric address, or an IPv6 numeric address. path The hierarchical path to the URL's resource. Examples: "/index.htm", "/scripts/page.php". query The data for a query. Examples: "?search=google.com". fragment The name of a secondary resource relative to that named by the path. Examples: "#section1", "#header". An "absolute" URL must include a scheme and path. The authority, query, and fragment components are optional. A "relative" URL does not include a scheme and must include a path. The authority, query, and fragment components are optional. This function splits the $url argument into the following components and returns them in an associative array. Keys to that array include: "scheme" The scheme, such as "http". "host" The host name, IPv4, or IPv6 address. "port" The port number. "user" The user name. "pass" The user password. "path" The path, such as a file path for "http". "query" The query. "fragment" The fragment. One or more of these may not be present, depending upon the URL. Optionally, the "user", "pass", "host" (if a name, not an IP address), "path", "query", and "fragment" may have percent-encoded characters decoded. The "scheme" and "port" cannot include percent-encoded characters and are never decoded. Decoding occurs after the URL has been parsed. Parameters: url the URL to parse. decode an optional boolean flag selecting whether to decode percent encoding or not. Default = TRUE. Return values: the associative array of URL parts, or FALSE if the URL is too malformed to recognize any parts. |
join_url( $parts, $encode=FALSE) X-Ref |
This function joins together URL components to form a complete URL. RFC3986 specifies the components of a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). This function implements the specification's "component recomposition" algorithm for combining URI components into a full URI string. The $parts argument is an associative array containing zero or more of the following: "scheme" The scheme, such as "http". "host" The host name, IPv4, or IPv6 address. "port" The port number. "user" The user name. "pass" The user password. "path" The path, such as a file path for "http". "query" The query. "fragment" The fragment. The "port", "user", and "pass" values are only used when a "host" is present. The optional $encode argument indicates if appropriate URL components should be percent-encoded as they are assembled into the URL. Encoding is only applied to the "user", "pass", "host" (if a host name, not an IP address), "path", "query", and "fragment" components. The "scheme" and "port" are never encoded. When a "scheme" and "host" are both present, the "path" is presumed to be hierarchical and encoding processes each segment of the hierarchy separately (i.e., the slashes are left alone). The assembled URL string is returned. Parameters: parts an associative array of strings containing the individual parts of a URL. encode an optional boolean flag selecting whether to do percent encoding or not. Default = true. Return values: Returns the assembled URL string. The string is an absolute URL if a scheme is supplied, and a relative URL if not. An empty string is returned if the $parts array does not contain any of the needed values. |
encode_url($url) X-Ref |
This function encodes URL to form a URL which is properly percent encoded to replace disallowed characters. RFC3986 specifies the allowed characters in the URL as well as reserved characters in the URL. This function replaces all the disallowed characters in the URL with their repective percent encodings. Already encoded characters are not encoded again, such as '%20' is not encoded to '%2520'. Parameters: url the url to encode. Return values: Returns the encoded URL string. |
extract_html_urls( $text ) X-Ref |
Extract URLs from a web page. URLs are extracted from a long list of tags and attributes as defined by the HTML 2.0, HTML 3.2, HTML 4.01, and draft HTML 5.0 specifications. URLs are also extracted from tags and attributes that are common extensions of HTML, from the draft Forms 2.0 specification, from XHTML, and from WML 1.3 and 2.0. The function returns an associative array of associative arrays of arrays of URLs. The outermost array's keys are the tag (element) name, such as "a" for <a> or "img" for <img>. The values for these entries are associative arrays where the keys are attribute names for those tags, such as "href" for <a href="...">. Finally, the values for those arrays are URLs found in those tags and attributes throughout the text. Parameters: text the UTF-8 text to scan Return values: an associative array where keys are tags and values are an associative array where keys are attributes and values are an array of URLs.

extract_css_urls( $text ) X-Ref |
Extract URLs from UTF-8 CSS text. URLs within @import statements and url() property functions are extracted and returned in an associative array of arrays. Array keys indicate the use context for the URL, including: "import" "property" Each value in the associative array is an array of URLs. Parameters: text the UTF-8 text to scan Return values: an associative array of arrays of URLs. See: http://nadeausoftware.com/articles/2008/01/php_tip_how_extract_urls_css_file |
