Re: Regex for Validating URL

From: "Jason Wong" <php-general@gremlins.biz>

Does anyone have the regex to make sure an http address is full and without error? like http://www.example.com

(?:http://(?:(?:(?:(?:(?:[a-zA-Z\d](?:(?:[a-zA-Z\d]|-)*[a-zA-Z\d])?)\. )*(?:[a-zA-Z](?:(?:[a-zA-Z\d]|-)*[a-zA-Z\d])?))|(?:(?:\d+)(?:\.(?:\d+)

Some "best of the internet" site... I had to pull it from the Google cache since work wouldn't let me get to the site. I don't even know if it really works or not... :) ---John Holmes....
