I think that should deal with just about everything your likely to encounter correctly, and should equate to roughly the logic used by a browser. Also should correct any oddities you might get on Windows with stray forward slashes from using dirname()
.
First argument is the full URL of the page where you found the <img>
(or <a>
or whatever) and second argument is the contents of the src
/href
etc attribute.
If anyone finds something that doesn't work (cos I know you'll all be trying to break it :-D), let me know and I'll try and fix it.
