note 14770 added to function.eregi-replace.php

Hello everyone: I'd just like to contribute two code snippets. This took me a LONG time to come up with because I am not an experienced programmer. Anyway, I am making a chat program and I wanted the user input to automatically replace any URLs and email addresses with links on the chat screen, so I used the following: $message = eregi_replace("([a-zA-Z]+)://([a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+)(\.[a-zA-Z]+)","<strong><a href=\"\\1://\\2\\3\" target=\"_blank\">\\1://\\2\\3</a></strong>", $message); $message = eregi_replace("([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)@([a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+)(\.[a-zA-Z]+)", "<strong><a href=\"mailto:\\1@\\2\\3\">\\1@\\2\\3</a></strong>", $message); Jake http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.eregi-replace.php
