More ideas for intresting functions specialy for websites:
- nl2span($text, $array_of_arguments_for_span)
- nl2div($text, $array_of_arguments_for_div)
- obfuscate_mailaddr($mail_addr).
Intresting for users that need such functions on several places in code and in
this case better as regexp in PHP itself. Why not take this ideas and put
together into ext/html(format)?
