Re: Filtering URLs problem..

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm writing a filter/parsing function for texts entered by users, and I've run into a problem... What I'm trying to do is to parse URLs of different sorts, ftp, http, mms, irc etc and format them as links, that part was real easy..

The hard part is when a user has already entered a complete link..
In short:

http://www.server.tld/page.html
should be converted to:
<a href='http://www.server.tld/page.html'>http://www.server.tld/page.html</a>

That part works fine, but if the user enters:

<a href='http://www.server.tld/page.html'>click here</a>

it all becomes a mess...  Can somebody please make a suggestion on this?

Skip anything inside <> tags... then you're last line would come through completely unchanged...
