Re: Algorithm or ideas wanted for creative text parsing

If I don't distinguish "blueyonder.co.uk" and "demon.co.uk", it will be just "co.uk" and that means most of commercial domains under UK tld. It will be akin to bundling most of us sites under ".com" alone.

if I had to take only the last 2 parts, it is a piece of cake, I wouldn't trouble this list for such a small RTFM issue. The problem I have is much more complicated.

And no, this isn't a rhetorical question at all. Raj
