Searching for a pattern

Hello,

Has somebody a pattern which contains:
- URL Checking (This Syntax: http://www(with and without www).lol.com
- Only *.html, *.htm, *.php formats - also: http://www.lol.com/index.html or
index.htm or index.php.

Thanks.

Gretting!

Do you mean something like this:

^http://(www\.)?[A-Za-z0-9-]+\.[A-Za-z0-9-]{2,}/?$

For full, proper URL validation, you'll have to go beyond a single
expression. I suppose it might theoretically possible to do it with just
a single expression, but I think people try to cram too much into
regexes, rather than breaking things down a bit.

It just so happens I recently wrote a URL validation plugin for Phorm.
You're welcome to extract the URLVal function from it and use it.

Hello Alan,

Your pattern can not help me. =(
Has somebody another idea?

Gretting.
