Finally! Regexp FTW!

http://5o1.co.cc/

I finally got this LiveComments script running today [liek omg it so hard] and I also managed to get it so that any url (http|https|ftp|ftps) is auto-linked using the word filters and regexp that the comment script allows.

Fuck yeah!

(comment script found at http://gmail.net/ - no relation to Google).

Code:

(^|\s*)(\w+(\-?\w+)*)(\.\w+(\.\w+)?)(\/.*)? $1http://$2$4$6
www\.http:\/\/ www.
((ht|f)tps?:\/\/)http:\/\/ $1
(^|\w|\s)(www\.) $1http://$2
((ht|f)tps?:\/\/)?(\w+\.)?(\w+(\-?\w+)*)(\.\w+(\.\w+)?)(\/.*)? <a\thref="$1$3$4$6$8">$1$3$4$6$8</a>

This code above is what I figured out to get it to rewrite URLs as clickable links [it disabled HTML, but since the word filter is awesome I can do this]

I will explain each line:

1. Get any url and add http:// to it...Now this is to handle those "example.com" ones, but coincidentally also handles "http://" and "www." by error.
2. Since we [may have] errored a www.example.com URL and made it "www.http://example.com" we need to switch it back to www.example.com
3. Like 2; we also may have http://http:// urls (bad) so we make them good again by removing the redundant http://.
4. replace any www. with http://www. (this is good and doesn't cause errors like in 1)
5. get all elements of that final URL and make it an <a> tag.


Flow chart (textual)


a) example.com => http:
b) www.example.com
c) http://example.com
d) http://www.example.com

Begin	Line One	Line Two	Line Three	Line Four	Line Five / Output
example.com	http://example.com	No Action	No Action	No Action	Clickable http://example.com
www.example.com	www.http://example.com	www.example.com	No Action	http://www.example.com	Clickable http://www.example.com
http://example.com	http://http://example.com	No Action	http://example.com	No Action	Clickable http://example.com
http://www.example.com	http://www.http://example.com	http://www.example.com	No Action	No Action	Clickable http://www.example.com

That there is what I figured out. Random code shit is random, I quite like that table I just drew up

And since it handles any https and http and ftp and ftps url too it's extra awesome.
