I would like to convert all url's posted in the forums to "click here" or something. Url's tend to be too long and screw up the posts...
Any hints?

Do you want to this only with URIs posted without the [url] tags? Going to be difficult to do it with them as you'll need to determine what is a URI and what isn't.

This topic may be of use, it details a slightly different solution to your problem.

Just spotted it. Been back to that line a couple of times since and haven't been able to figure out what the problem is.

More? I'd settle for some being the recovering cafeeinaholic that I am, nary a drop has passed my lips in over 20 months!

I made a small wizard, when pressing the wizard button one field will ask for name of the link, the next you can put your link in. See screenshots for example.

NAME


LINK


RESULT CODE INCL. POST PREVIEW SCREEN



Also it will add a diferend color to the link.<

Nice, but my users are too lazy to do something like that when they could just paste the link instead =)

Any hints?




How about an update query to convert the URL's to the format you're looking for?<

Bassman, how does your mod differ from the default "Prompt" format mode?

It seems a variation to me. I've seen others that use that language in their post link button. That's why I did the button java change noted here:
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=57507#329930

It's actually pretty easy with tabbed browsers and all (one step copy & paste), but it would sure be nice to have it automatic as mentioned in my post above. <
