Convert Eregi_replace to preg_replace in PHP
- by alexy13
I need help converting eregi_replace to preg_replace (since in PHP5 it's depreciated):
function makeClickableLinks($text)
{
$text = eregi_replace('(((f|ht){1}tp://)[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]+)',
'<a href="\\1">\\1</a>', $text);
$text = eregi_replace('([[:space:]()[{}])(www.[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%_\+.~#?&//=]+)',
'\\1<a href="http://\\2">\\2</a>', $text);
$text = eregi_replace('([_\.0-9a-z-]+@([0-9a-z][0-9a-z-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,3})',
'<a href="mailto:\\1">\\1</a>', $text);
return $text;
}
(It turns text links and emails into hyperlinks so that the user can click on them)
