		->maybe( "s" )
		->then( "://" )
		->maybe( "www." )
		->anythingBut( " " )
		->endOfLine();


if($regex->test("http://github.com"))
	echo "valid url";
else
	echo "invalid url";

if (preg_match($regex, 'http://github.com')) {
	echo 'valid url';
} else {
	echo 'invalud url';
}


echo "<pre>". $regex->getRegex() ."</pre>";



echo $regex ->clean(array("modifiers"=> "m","replaceLimit"=>4))
			->find(' ')
			->replace("This is a small test http://somesite.com and some more text.", "-");
