Combining an absolute and relative Url

[Joe Cybernet]

Is there any function for combining an absolute and a relative URL to result
in an absolute URL?
Like if I have http://www.domain.com and "../images/1.jpeg" it will evaluate
to http://www.domain.com/images/1.jpeg.

I know WinInet for windows has a function that does this called
InternetCombine Url, I just need the same function in PHP

strAbs = strDom & strURI

Re: Combining an absolute and relative Url

There's no built-in function that does that. Here's one that should join
there correctly:

function InternetCombine Url($absolute, $relative) {
extract(parse_u rl($absolute));
if($relative{0} == '/') {
$cparts = array_filter(ex plode("/", $relative));
}
else {
$aparts = array_filter(ex plode("/", $path));
$rparts = array_filter(ex plode("/", $relative));
$cparts = array_merge($ap arts, $rparts);
foreach($cparts as $i => $part) {
if($part == '.') {
$cparts[$i] = null;
}
if($part == '..') {
$cparts[$i - 1] = null;
$cparts[$i] = null;
}
}
$cparts = array_filter($c parts);
}
$path = implode("/", $cparts);
$url = "";
if($scheme) {
$url = "$scheme://";
}
if($user) {
$url .= "$user";
if($pass) {
$url .= ":$pass";
}
$url .= "@";
}
if($host) {
$url .= "$host/";
}
$url .= $path;
return $url;
}

echo InternetCombine Url("http://www.domain.com" , "../images/1.jpeg");

As has already been said, there isn't a built-in function for
resolving relative URLs. However, you might follow the algorithm set
out in RFC2396 sec. 5.2. Watch out if you're using parse_url, as it
parses some relative URLs incorrectly.
