After reading up and finding a million different Text-to-URL expressions and functions I grabbed
this one from the list and modified it slightly to actually work in pretty much all instances.
Credit goes to those who actually first developed the expressions.
function TextToUrls($str)
{
$str =
ereg_replace("((www.)([a-zA-Z0-9@:%_.~#-\?&]+[a-zA-Z0-9@:%_~#\?&/]))", "http://\\1", $str);
$str = ereg_replace("(ftp://|http://|https://)(ftp://|http://|https://)([a-zA-Z0-9@:%_.~#-\?&]+[a-zA-Z0-9@:%_~#\?&/])",
"\\1\\3", $str);
$str = ereg_replace("(((ftp://|http://|https://){1})[a-zA-Z0-9@:%_.~#-\?&]+[a-zA-Z0-9@:%_~#\?&/])",
"<a href=\"\\1\" target=\"_blank\">\\1</a>", $str);
$str =
ereg_replace('[A-Za-z0-9]([A-Za-z0-9._]*[A-Za-z0-9]|())@[A-Za-z0-9]([A-Za-z0-9.\-]*[A-Za-z0-9]|())\.[A-Za-z]+',
'<a href="mailto:\\0">\\0</a>',
$str);
return $str;
}
