<?php
$Val = "body of text you want to process...";

$Val =
eregi_replace("(http://|https://|ftp://|gopher://|news:|mailto:)([[:alnum:]/!#$%&'()*+,.:;=?@_~-]+)([[:alnum:]/!#$%&'()*+:;=?@_~-])",
'<a href="\\1\\2\\3">\\1\\2\\3</a>', "$Val");
?>


You'll have to undo the line wrapping before you use that.

Enjoy,
