domainbase
==========

[](#domainbase)

Get the base domain of a url in php.

Getting the actual domain from a url can suck, there are multiple edgecases and it isn't built into php.

With domainbase, just pass it a url like this:

```

$dbase = new DomainBase();
$dbase->basename("http://images.google.co.uk/somecrap?here=adasdasd");
//this will return "google"

```

easy!

Installation
============
