plain text email address to hyperlink?

I've attempted to use the following snippet to convert an email address in plain text to a hyperlink, and while it works fine in a function to verify an email address, it doesn't seem to work to replace all occurances of an email address within a body of text. $page = eregi_replace("^[0-9a-z]+([-_./]([0-9a-z]+))*@[0-9a-z]+([-.]([0-9a-z]+))*\\. [a-z]{2,4}$","<a href=\"\\1\">\\1</a>",$pageOne); echo $page; $pageOne is the body of text that has the email address(es) in it. Is there a better way of doing this, or would I have to bend and use an array to scan each word for an email address and then convert them from there?
