URLs to Links

[moon 111]

I'm trying to write a regular expression to convert URLs found in a text into links. This is what I have right now (yes, I don't know what I'm doing):

 

<?php

$text = 'blah blah blah http://www.google.com asdasd';

$regex = '~((http://|https://)(?:www\.)?\w+\.[a-z]{2,4})~';

preg_replace($regex, '<a href="$1">$1</a>', $text);

echo $text;

?>

 

Thanks
