Re: making e-mail link

Bill I grabed this function from the www.php.net manual and it works great, it covers all your bases, except that it will show you http://www.something.com for http://www.something.com or www.something.com. If somone knows how to modify it so it would only show www.something.com when linked, that would be perfect. // Auto Link HTML /** * Function from phpmanual http://www.php.net/ * unoandre@online.no */ function getAutoLink($text){ if($GLOBALS["use_AutoLinks"]){ $text = ereg_replace("((www.)([a-zA-Z0-9@:%_.~#-\?&]+[a-zA-Z0-9@:%_~#\?&/]))", "http://\\1", $text); $text = ereg_replace("((ftp://|http://|https://){2})([a-zA-Z0-9@:%_.~#-\?&]+[a-zA-Z0 -9@:%_~#\?&/])", "http://\\3", $text); $text = ereg_replace("(((ftp://|http://|https://){1})[a-zA-Z0-9@:%_.~#-\?&]+[a-zA-Z0 -9@:%_~#\?&/])", "<A HREF=\"\\1\" TARGET=\"_blank\">\\1</A>", $text); $text = ereg_replace("([_\.0-9a-z-]+@([0-9a-z][0-9a-z-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,3})","<A HREF=\"mailto:\\1\">\\1</A>", $text); return $text; } } peace Richard "bill" <bill@billtron.com> wrote in message news:3B3B48A4.6D5EE2AF@billtron.com... > I use this to replace URLs as links: > > $text = eregi_replace("(http://[^ ]*)","<a > href=\"\\1\">\\1</a>",$text); > > What can I use to replace email addresses (like "name@mymail.com") as > e-mail links? > > kind regards, > > bill hollett > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
