Creating link via [L]

[MoldRat]

I want to make it so that when you type [L]blah.html[/L] it says blah.html like the URL tag here. How might I do this?

little example that I just threw together this might give you some ideas

<?
function phpHighlight($input) {
 $text = spliti("\[L\]|\[\/L\]",$input);
 for($i = 0; $i < count($text); $i++) {
  if(ereg("(<\?)(.*)(\?>)",$text[$i])) {
    ob_start();
     $text[$i] = ob_get_contents();
     ob_end_clean();
   } 
 }
$text = implode("",$text);
 return $text;
}
?>

Here is a one line solution.

preg_replace( "/[L](.*?)[\/L]/",'<A href="\1">\1</A>',$string );
