Get full path to image from php

Question

Hy!

I parse a website with simplehtml dom to get all links from the pictures.

The problem is that the link is like "/pics/bla.jpg".

I have the full path from the website like "http://xxx.xxx/blob/gulsch".

Now i want to get the full image link from the image (link root + /pics/bla.jpg) (no concat) like: http://xxx.xxx/pics/bla.jpg

This should work for many websites

I tried it with explode()

$root = explode("/", $link);
echo $root[2];

I never get it working.

Please help.

Given the parts of a URL, you can build a full URL with http_build_url.

Try with parse_url:

$r = parse_url($websiteUrl);
$imageUrl = $r["scheme"] . "://" . $r["host"] . "/" . $imageRelativeUrl;

The "root" of the website is simply $r["host"].
