如何使用PHP查找字符串是否包含特定URL？

Question

I want to do a pattern match for certain domain names (using PHP). For example, if I am given a website URL, then I want to determine if that URL is from YouTube. The code below is what I tried, but it doesn't work (the if statement is always false). Any suggestions? Thanks ahead of time!

$website = trim( htmlentities( filter_var($_POST['website'], FILTER_SANITIZE_URL) ) );

if( preg_match("/youtube\.com/i", $website) )
{
    // do stuff
}

Your code looks fine to me...

<?php

$website = 'http://youtube.com/video?w=123455';

if( preg_match("#youtube\.com#i", $website, $matches) )
{
      print_r($matches);
}

EDIT

Still looks like it should work:

<?php

$_POST = array();
$_POST['website'] = 'http://youtube.com/video?w=123455';
$website = trim( htmlentities( filter_var($_POST['website'], FILTER_SANITIZE_URL)));

if( preg_match("#youtube\.com#i", $website, $matches) )
{
      print_r($matches);
}

OUTPUT

Array
(
    [0] => youtube.com
)
