It's indeed an ingenious way of doing it!

A while ago I've been looking at some piece of code of the tikiwiki project to see how they did some of their magic...
Basically they run through the whole text and if they found something that was translated they made a hash and replaced the actual text with it and stored the link in an assoc array. when all occurrences of translatable elements were found they ran through the array and replaced all hashes with the translated text.
I found that to be quite an ingenious way of doing it ... Then again it might have misread/misinterpreted the code :)

I can't figure out how to do this.
I've four different methods for changing a piece of text into a hyperlink.
the text:
[link=www.hotmail.com]hotmail[/link] [link=http://www.hotmail.com]hotmail[/link] www.hotmail.com http://www.hotmail.com
what it should become (offcourse in HTML it will change to a real hyperlink):
<a href="http://www.hotmail.com"; target="_blank">hotmail</a> <a href="http://www.hotmail.com"; target="_blank">hotmail</a> <a href="http://www.hotmail.com"; target="_blank">www.hotmail.com</a> <a
href="http://www.hotmail.com";
target="_blank">http://www.hotmail.com</a>
i've got this regexps, at this point there are two different ones and I
would like to combine them (not really necessary):
1.
$text = str_replace("[link=http://";, "[link=", $text);
$text = preg_replace("/\[link=(.+)\](.+)\[\/link\]/U", "<a href=\"http://\\1\"; target=\"_blank\">\\2</a>", $text);
2.
$text = preg_replace("!(((http(s?)://)|(www|home\.))([-a-z0-9.]{2,}\.[a-z]{2,4}(:[0-9]+)?)((/([^\s]*[^\s.,\"'])?)?)((\?([^\s]*[^\s.,\"'])?)?))!i",
"<a href=\"http\\4://\\5\\6\\8\\9\" target=\"_blank\">\\1</a>", $text);
// I copied this one, maybe someone knows a better one?
the problem is that it's replaced a second time resulting in this:target="_blank">>http://www.hotmail.com</a>]hotmail[/link] [link=<a
<a href="<a href="http://www.hotmail.com
href="http://www.hotmail.com"; target="_blank">www.hotmail.com</a>"target="_blank">>hotmail</a> <a href="http://www.hotmail.com"; target="_blank">>www.hotmail.com</a> <a href="http://www.hotmail.com"; target="_blank">>http://www.hotmail.com</a>
the last two (without the [link=] part) are working
