I have a string with the following information.
$myString = "This is my example string please. Please visit http://www.mylink.com . More example text goes here. another link http://www.link2.com . more text.. blah..";
What I'm wanting is a function to return the following string :
$myString = This is my example string please. Please visit <a
href'http://www.mylink.com' >link</a> . More example text goes here.
another link <a href='http://www.link2.com'> link</a> . more text.. blah..";
Each string may contain 0 or more http:// instances. The function would
only parse on an http:// match.
I know this could be done with regular expressions, but I'm not sure how
to insert the modified data back into the original string at the correct
location.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Works ok, unless the text is in 'normal' written language - where the full
stop (or period) would appear directly after the link (eg. "Please visit http://www.mylink.com. More example text..."), in which case the closing
full stop will be a part of the link, and therefore result in a broken link.
Too late at night for me to start thinking how to overcome that, though! ;-)

Hi,
I need to read a big CSV file, where different fields should be converted to
different types,
such as int, double, datetime, SqlMoney, etc.
I have an array, which describes the fields and their types. I would like
to somehow store a reference to parsing operations in this array
(such as Int32.Parse, Double.Parse, SqlMoney.Parse, etc),
so I can invoke the appropriate one without writing a long switch.

I have a product that reads/writes RSS 2.0 documents, among other things.
The RSS 2.0 spec mandates an en-US style of date formatting (RFC 822). I
have been using a variation of RFC 1123 (just change the time zone to an
offset, i.e. "-0800"). It seems to be writing okay, but it's failing to
parse.
I've tried changing the regional & language settings in my...

Hello, I am trying to write some code to parse a sentence and hyperlink
just the words in it. I used Aaron's code from an earlier question as
a start.
So far, all the code does below is hyperlink everything separated by a
space, which means stuff like "work." "happy." "Well;" "not." from the
sentence become hyperlinks (whereas im interested in just the words
themselves becoming hyperlinks and the punctuation staying
nonhyperlinks). ...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
