I have a textarea field where users can enter anything they want, similar to a messageboard. What i want to know is:
1. How can I automatically parse if someone enters a URL like so: http://www.a_site.com/ into a clickable LINK
2. Same as above, but with an email.
Thanks

Code: Select all
$text = preg_replace ("/(ftp|http|https):\/\/(їa-z0-9~#%@&:;=!',_crl\(\)\?\/\.\-\+\ї\]\|\*\$\^\{\}]+)/i", "<a href="\\1://\\2" target="_blank">\\1://\\2</a>", $text);
$text = preg_replace ("/(ї\s|"])(ї\w|\.|\-|_]+)@(ї\w||\-|_]+)\.(ї\w|\.|\-|_]+)/i", "\\1<a href="mailto:\\2@\\3.\\4">\\2@\\3.\\4</a>", $text);
Replace $text with variable with text in it...

ahh sweet, thanks a lot
and as for the smileys, replacing them would be like this?
Code: Select all
$text = str_replace(":)", "<img src='images/smile.gif'>", $text);
$text = str_replace(":D", "<img src='images/grin.gif'>", $text);
...
...
etc.
correct?

It's the explanation of that "mess"...

It could probably be shorter, but hey, I'm still learning...
Fatalcure, yes, that is correct...
