/include/functions.inc (i was forgetting /include)
function addlinks($text)
{
$text = htmlspecialchars($text);
$text =
preg_replace("/((mailto|http|ftp|nntp|news):.+?)(>|\\s|\\)|\\.\\s|$)/i","<a
href=\"\\1\">\\1</a>\\3",$text);
# what the heck is this for?
$text = preg_replace("/[.,]?-=-\"/", '"', $text);
return $text;

In the source of your bug.php, at the very bottom it has a line:
$note =
addlinks(preg_replace("/(\r?\n){3,}/","\n\n",wordwrap($comment,72,"\n",1)));
addlinks is not defined in the source, so i am assuming it is in
prepend.inc (?), but unfortunatley, we cannot view .inc files using
source.php, any help?

THIS PAGE DOES IT! (NOT THE EMAIL THOUGH) (but it is a non full proof
regex?)
Still, if it is a GOOD regex, that almost never messes up, a function
would be ... easier :D

First, this task can be accomplished with a regex, but it is only _so_
effective.
If there was some way to make functions that would take in a string,
and return a string that has all links, and all email addresses (2
seperate functions, or one with a set of switches) properly formatted
to work as links.
The reason it is hard with regex, is becuase it is impossible to search
for a link when it can be formatted so many ways.
/********** simple **************/
$string = "Hey, check out http://www.spoonified.com, and email me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$linkified = hrefparse($string);
echo $linkified;
/*******************************/
returns this:
Hey, check out <a
href="http://www.spoonified.com">http://www.spoonified.com</a>, and
email me at <a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">[EMAIL PROTECTED]</a>
of course, the link, the main reason regex is bad, could have many
things in it, it could point to a file, have a query string in it, have
no www, have many PERIODS (multiple subdomains), be https://, and also
not be seperated from other text (such as
"OMFGwww.spoonified.comRULES"), and the list goes on.
Email addresses follow the same conditions i mentioned above (minus a
few of course, and plus a few also).
Maybe im just overlooking a complex enough regex to do this.
I DO know it can be done. Many IRC/Instant Message programs do a
wonderful job of it. They take a link, no matter what conditions, or an
email address, and will show an active link once sent. Obviously there
is a rexeg im too lame to understand, or a better way to accomplish
it.
(also, you 5.0.xCVS is still having an error on the php4apache2.dll
compile, just a sidenote, no comments needed, i think you guys are
already aware)
