I still think this code could be useful. Obviously I'd change the parsing routine to use parse_url(), but parse_url doesn't give any defaults. This for example: parse_url('#top') gives this result: Array ( [path] => [fragment] => top ) No server, protocol, port, path or file defaults. This extra functionality could be provided by this class, along with the ability to generate a full url given constituent parts, like the function in it already (getUrl()), or the function in the manual notes for parse_url(). -- Richard Heyes "If you have any trouble sounding condescending, find a Unix user to show you how it's done." - Scott Adams
