Subject: Re: [PHP] Parse URLs
not entirely sure what is going on there, but if the user is entering
the url in a html form. Then just grab the variable on the next page
and run this
$url=user $HTTP_GET_VARS["url"]; (or $HTTP_POST_VARS depending on your
form method)
$url="<a href=".$url.">".$url."</a>";
echo $url;
the only way to change it dynamically on the same page would be
javascript.

I have a simple post script and I want to make it so if a user types in
a URL of some sort, to change it to make it clickable. How could I do
that?
Thanks,
