Hey guys,

This is a really simple question, and I searched for it here, but couldn't find anything. All I want to do is strip all the characters after an @ sign, so it would change an e-mail address from user@domain.com to just user@

Think someone could help me out?

Thanks,
Jon

$string = 'user@domain.com';
$new = explode('@',$string);
$domain = $new[0];
echo $domain;

Will echo everything after the @ sign.

I'm embarrased by how easy that was and that I should have known. Thanks though, I appreciate it. Hopefully not too many people read this thread :)

You can even assign directly to the domain:
$string = 'user@domain.com';
list($domain) = explode('@',$string);
echo $domain;

Excellent. Thanks for the tips :)

Is something wrong with my PHP install? Both of those examples print out "user" instead of "domain.com" ... using

$string = 'user@domain.com';
list($user, $domain) = explode('@',$string);
echo $domain;

prints correctly. This just me?

I get user too, and that's what I wanted. Not sure if it's supposed to do the opposite.

Sorry, when mouldy_punk said "Will echo everything after the @ sign." and it didn't I got confused. My mistake.

Yup, the variable was misnamed. The OP asked for the front portion, which the code did return, and your code gives both sides.

Heh, sorry, typo.

Change this line;
$domain = $new[0];
To;
$domain = $new[1];

That will echo everything after the @ sign.
