URLs in Text, and Parsing them into Hyperlinked HTML urls

 / Published in: PHP
 

URL: http://www.webmasterworld.com/php/3268855.htm

Try something like this.

$pattern = "/http:\/\/(www.)?([^.]+.[^.\s]+.?[^.\s]*)/i"; $replace = "http://\1\2"; $string = [url=http://us2.php.net/preg-replace]preg_replace/url; echo $string;

Where $string is the text. Just a couple notes about this pattern: 1) The URI MUST have "http://" before it 2) It works for URIs formatted in the following ways

http://www.example.foo http://www.example.foo.foo #having two http://example.foo http://example.foo.foo #having two http://foo.exmaple.foo #pretty much the same as above
