str_replace question

Langridge

How do you create the www.url.com tags?

I am using the str_replace command (see below) to replace other HTML tags, but if I use this for the url and change it to the <a href> tag it dosnt get given a name, so nothing is displayed.

str_replace ("", "<a href=");
str_replace ("", "></a>");

ie. <a href="www.url.com>---No info to display---</a>

Thanks

do a substr_count() first for url before str_replace...

hope this might help

I'm sure it will...but I've never used the substr_count function before, could you give me a code explample of how it would work?

Thanks.

it is time to get yourself a php manual

download from www.php.net

there is example code using substr_count inside that manual

or view online
