I am trying to scan some text that is submitted through a form for a simple guestbook and would like to replace any URLs that are submitted in the comments area with a driect link to the site.

I just cant think of how to do this... does anyone have any examples that may help me out.

Drew

if $comment contains the text, do this:
Code:
$comment =~ s| http://(.*?) | <a href=\"http://$1\">$1</a> |ig;

this will link any url with a space on both sites of it.
