Try function parse_url()

<?php
$url =  'http://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/img/clean/logo.png';
$array = parse_url($url);

echo $array['host'];

As you can see this answer doesn't have a negative score. Which means only one thing..... I didn't down vote your answer. And no, your answer is not correct to what the OP is asking. Sorry to be blunt but there it is. – Darren Apr 03 '14 at 08:47
