ID: 6893 Updated by: jan Reported By: pgl@instinct.org Old Status: Open Status: Analyzed Old Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug Type: PEAR related Operating System: N/A PHP Version: 4.0.2 New Comment: sounds if PEAR has another task ;). reclassified. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2000-09-26 19:36:44] pgl@instinct.org I don't know if this is the best way to submit a feature request, but I think it would be handy to have a builtin makelinks() function, to change all urls in a piece of text to actual links. eg, changing "my homepage is at http://www.arse.net/" to "my homepage is at <a href=http://www.arse.net/>http://www.arse.net/</a>". 'course, it's pretty easy to code this yourself, but then so is nl2br(), and having it as part of the source would (maybe?) make it faster. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=6893&edit=1
