URL to Link-Hack June 13, 2001 07:15PM |
i am not sure, if there was such a hack available or a similar function. anyway, here is one i have scripted today.
first it look, if there are urls like www.example.com and gives a http:// in front of it
second, it places <a...> and </a>-tags around the URLs, with a target to open the link in a new window.
no urls already in tags, like an <img src="..."> are modified.
if there are already <a...>-tags in the posting, no modifications are done. this is on one hand to avoid the problem of recognizing urls, which already have an <a>-tag around them, and on the other hand, it is the opinion of the author, that if someone uses anchor-tags in his posting, we should not interfere, because he will know, what he is doing.

Re: URL to Link-Hack - misunderstanding July 09, 2001 05:13AM |
I'm sorry. I think I've misunderstood how this thing works.
If I combine <a..> </a> links with www.something.com it doesn't care about www.something.com since the users should know what he's doing due to the fact that he already has used a <a...> </a> link...? If a proper html link is found anywhere in the post it just skips the rest... is this so? If it is it works perfectly both on reply and on preview.

ps. Thanks for your great hack!

Changes in Version 3.2.2a January 31, 2002 12:47PM |
In Version 3.2.2a you have to add the following lines to the read_functions.php file so that the urls are converted correctly:
if(function_exists("preg_replace")){
// handle old legacy <> links by converting them into BB tags
$body=preg_replace("/<((http|https|ftp):\/\/[a-z0-9;\/\?:@=~\&\$\-_\.\+!*'\(\),]+?)>/i", "<a href=\"$1\" target=\"_blank\">$1</a>", $body);
$body=preg_replace("/<a href=\"((http|https|ftp):\/\/[a-z0-9;\/\?:@=~\&\$\-_\.\+!*'\(\),]+?)\" target=\"_blank\">([a-z0-9;\/\?:@=~\&\$\-_\.\+!*'\(\),]+?)<\/a>/i", "<a href=\"$1\" target=\"_blank\">$1</a>", $body);
$body=preg_replace("/[a-z0-9\-_\.\+]+@[a-z0-9\-]+\.[a-z0-9\-\.]+?)">([a-z0-9\-_\.\+]+@[a-z0-9\-]+\.[a-z0-9\-\.]+?)/i", "<a href=\"mailto:$1\">$1</a>", $body);
}
if you don't have opening the links in a new window enabled just delete the target="_blank" string

Hiya Peeps!
Ok I've done this but it still won't work in 3.2.2a..?
Anyone got any ideas, for instance whereabouts do you insert the above code in the read_functions file..?
Any help would be greatfully appreciated.
If anyone is interested in what I'm up to then check out:

Re: Changes in Version 3.2.2a February 21, 2002 05:01AM |
I changed the code so that it works now in 3.2.2a without any changes needed in read_functions.php
if you want to habe the links opened in new windows just change the two lines in read_functions.php to:
$body=preg_replace("/[url\]((http|https|ftp|mailto):\/\/[a-z0-9;\/?:@=\&\$\-_\.\+!*'\(\),]+?)[\/url\]/i", "<a href=\"$1\" arget=_blank>$1</a>", $body);
$body=preg_replace("/[url=((http|https|ftp|mailto):\/\/[a-z0-9;\/\?:@=\&\$\-_\.\+!*'\(\),]+?)\](.+?)[\/url\]/i", "<a href=\"$1\" target=_blank>$3</a>",$body);
you can find these two lines next to if($ForumAllowHTML==1){
have fun with it

Simplified Version May 25, 2002 03:16PM |
Maybe I am just a simpleton but with 3.3.2a all I needed to add to get the functionality I wanted was:
$body=eregi_replace("(http://[^ >\n\t]+)", "<a href=\"\\1\">\\1</a>", $body);
I just put that right before "// exec all read plugins" and got everything i need.
Thanks for all of your help!
