These large regular expressions drive me nuts! I've got this regex (can�t remember where but I definitely didn�t write it.
str = rereplace(str, "((((https?:)\/\/)|(www\.|ftp\.))[-[:alnum:]\?%,\.\/&##!@:=\+~_]+[A-Za-z0-9\ /])", "<a href=""\1"" target=""_blank"">\1</a>", "ALL"); It works well. It will replace anything that matches the form of a url with the appropriate html to make it active and open in a new window. My problem is that I don�t want it to replace links that fall between [img] and [/img] tags eg I would want this link skipped [img]http://www.google.com/logos/lunarnewyear05.gif[/img] I plan to turn the image links into <a <img tags to have them displayed and linked rather than just linked -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
