Note Submitter: Nick ---- Here is a more secure version of the link conversion code which hopefully make cross site scripting attacks more difficult. <?php function convert_links($str) { $replace = <<<EOPHP '<a href="'.htmlentities('\\1').htmlentities('\\2').//remove line break '">'.htmlentities('\\1').htmlentities('\\2').'</a>' EOPHP; $str = preg_replace('#(http://)([^\s]*)#e', $replace, $str); return $str; } ?>
