i am designing a site with a comment system and i would like a twitter like reply system.
The if the user puts @a_registered_username i would like it to become a link to the user's profile.
i think preg_replace is the function needed for this.
$ALL_USERS_ROW *['USERNAME'] is the database query array for all the users and ['USERNAME'] is the username row.
$content is the comment containing the @username
i think this should not be very hard to solve for someone who is good at php.
Does anybody have any idea how to do it?
