Replacing e-mail, style


AndyPSV

Recommended Posts

I've got a code that searches TEXT in search of e-mail addresses, i.e. "xxx@xxx.pl" etc. and replaces it, with the phrase I want (<a href='mailto: X' with some style=''></a>)

 

How to turn it into preg_replace()

 

?

Most of the time, the regex you're using is compatible with PCRE functions... as long as you wrap it with delimiters. Pick a character that you aren't using in the regex, often / or # or ~, or pick one you are using an escape it wherever you do, and put it at the beginning and end of the expression.

'/[-a-z0-9!#$%&\'*+\/=?^_`{|}~]+@([.]?[a-zA-Z0-9_\/-])*/' // escaped the two /s
If you want case-insensitive expressions, like with eregi() and eregi_replace(), then use the i flag. It goes after the last delimiter.

'/[-a-z0-9!#$%&\'*+\/=?^_`{|}~]+@([.]?[a-zA-Z0-9_\/-])*/i'
