show the direct link into href

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 by admin

I want to display link on the page. i am fetching the data(URL) from database,actually before that i am checking if it is URL or not. if it is URL, let take an example google.com so it should take me directly on the Google's page after clicking on that link .

but now the problem is the path is something like this.

Quote mydomain/myfolder/mysubfolder/google.com
i want directly

Quote google.com
Here is my code

Code: [Select]if($row['which_mail'] == "decline")
{

if(!preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z]+[://]+[A-Za-z0-9-_]+\.+[A-Za-z0-9./%&=?-_]+$/i",$row['content']))
{

$ab = $row['content'];
echo $ab ;
// echo "<b>Last message for decline mail is</b>-".<a href='$ab'>".$row['content']."</a>.";

echo "<a href='$ab'>".$row['content']."</a>";

}else{
$decline =$row['content'];

echo "<b>Last message for decline mail is</b>- $decline";
}}

Can anyone look into my code and tell me how can i achieve that?

Thanks in advance.
