[2005] Parse URL
Anyone have code to extract a link from a textbox or website or something? I just want to log all links a user types but the problem is it can be in bleh.com format or http://bleh.com format or http://www.bleh.com format and even have /folder1/folder2/file.jpg etc..I am trying to put the domain, the folder, and the file in a listview.

Re: [2005] Parse URL
in order to fully create the correct link, you would have to check each case, if it is not a regular "http://" case with the domain, etc, you would have to build the full string onto the matches using regex and/or string manipulation. I have seen a sample screen scraper project by microsoft that I believe includes this functionality, and the link is at the bottom of the following link: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=392874

Well I think that it was originally a 2002 project. You can probably paste the code into whatever version you are working in, and go from there. As far as understanding the code, it is pretty well documented, in fact, its some of the most descriptive code comments I have seen. It even goes so far as to explain each regular expression piece that makes up the whole pattern...

The regex is the part I don't get.

Then it's time to do some reading on regex syntax. It can get very complex but. like everything, you should start small and build up. There are plenty of sites on the Net. Here are a couple:
