Thanks in advance, Nico Well, this isn't the most robust and someone will probably say not to use regular expressions, but the QD way is: import re fixed = re.sub(r'(http:[^\s\n\r]+)', r'a href=\1\1/a', your_string) NB. If the URLs are malformed (like have spaces in them, or are broken over several lines) this won't work right. Regards, Jordan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Find Replace hyperlinks in a string
You mean in Python? 'cause if it is a one time shot kind of thing, I would simply open the file in my favorite editor (NEdit) and use a Search and Replace, check the regexp box and type my expression...something along the lines of ([^:]+)://([^:/]+)(: ([0-9]+))?(/.*) to find URLs and then replace with a href=\0\0/ a ...if I remember correctly that \0 is the entire match, \1 the first parenthesised match, etc. gsal -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
