........Thank you. I tried the following: <? $text="<link>http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/03/national/03tape.html? ex=1249272000&en=484f82ff258ab8c7&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt</link>"; $new_text = preg_replace('!<link>(.*?)</link>!', '<a href="\1" target="_blank">\1</a>', $text); echo $new_text; ?> The output in my browser is the URL with no link - and no target="_blank". http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/03/national/03tape.html? ex=1249272000&en=484f82ff258ab8c7&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt If you get a chance run the script through your server and see. I'm on apache. Any throughts? Many thanks for your time. TR -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
