I'm trying to replace *[URL]www.link.com[/URL]* with HTML with this regexp:
topic.text = re.sub("(\[URL\])(.*)(\[\/URL\])", '<a href="$2">$2</a>', topic
.text, flags=re.I)
But it's giving me the following problems:
1. The $2 capture group is only able to be repeated once, so I get
<a href="www.link.com">$2</a>
instead of
<a href="www.link.com">www.link.com</a>
2. Only the first *[URL]* is matched. Everything after the first *[/URL]*
is simply deleted...
I hope someone can help me with this. I'm using Python 2.7 if it makes a
difference.
