Short of writing a plugin, does anyone have any ideas how to strip “http://” & a trailing slash from a URL?

For example a URL stored, say, in a custom field as “http://www.websitename.com/” would be output as “www.websitename.com”.

A plugin might do it as follows:

<txp:strip_http><txp:custom_field name=“link” /></txp:strip_http>

Thanks,

Adi

<txp:php>
  echo preg_replace('#^(?:http://)?(.*?)/?$#', '$1', custom_field(array('name' => 'link')));
</txp:php>

or:

<txp:php>
  echo rtrim(str_replace('http://', '', custom_field(array('name' => 'link'))), '/');
</txp:php>
