Replace URLs in text

[yonatankra 1]

I've been searching for something like that but couldn't find it.

I have a text like:

"Go to http://mydomain.com/blabla and see what I'm talking about"

or

"Go to http://www.mydomain.com.br/ and see what I'm talking about"

I want to be able to replace the domain name with something.  For instance, an <a> element:

"<a href="http://mydomain.com/blabla?someParam=someValue">Some text</a>"

I tried using reg exp replace, but it's not working for me.

Any idea how to make this work?

Hello.

 

It depends a little bit on the type of URLs you have to support. If they also contain stuff like ?id=xa77t then my example will not work.

But for a regular ULR wil text and numbers, it works.

 

So hopefully it helps a little bit to get you started.

 

set(#test, "Go to http://mydomain.com/blabla and see what I'm talking about", "Global")
set(#test1, "Go to http://www.mydomain.com.br/ and see what I'm talking about", "Global")
set(#test2, $replace regular expression(#test, , "\"<a href=\"http://mydomain.com/...Param=someValue\">Some text</a>\""), "Global")
set(#test3, $replace regular expression(#test1, , "\"<a href=\"http://mydomain.com/...Param=someValue\">New text</a>\""), "Global")

 

If you need support for other stuff, just add that into the [a-zA-Z0-9./]

The important thing is to have a space after the URL. Because that's the separator.
