Validating sub domain URLS
Volka,
I am building a lite search engine directory listing and i want to be able to validate domain names before they insert there information i also want to include subdomains like subdomain.thedomain.com and thedomain.com/thewebsite submissions. I have seen that PHP offers a get_meta_tags() which retrieves meta tags from remote webpages. I wanted to build the submission part to be able to auto fill out the form using the information from a get_meta_tags()...
i have been doing some test but i find that i am having trouble with subdomains.thedomain.com type websites. i was hoping that anyone had any advice or encountered this problem and had a work around.
i am currently researching the path_info and parse url functions aloong with a readfile scenario to try to get a workl around...just wondered if anybody had any experience with this to point me in a direction
