Replacing text

[AustinPowers]

How do I convert the following HTML back to URL's and email addresses?

<a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://whatever.com&quot;>http://whatever.com</a>[/URL]
<a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.whatever.com&quot;>http://www.whatever.com</a>[/URL]
<a href=&quot;mailto:whatever@whatever.com&quot;>whatever@whatever.com</a>

And... what code would I use to change [color=//]//[/color] and [align=//]//[/align] back to:

<font color=&quot;//&quot;>//</font>

<p align=&quot;//&quot;>//</p>

Thanks in advance.

I'll do the mailto for you, lets see if you can figure out the url for yourself :

<?php

$mailto='<a href=&quot;mailto:someone@somewhere.com&quot;>mail them</a>';
$chop_left=preg_replace(&quot;/<a href=\&quot;mailto:/&quot;,&quot;&quot;,$mailto);
$email=preg_replace(&quot;/\&quot;>.*$/i&quot;,&quot;&quot;,$chop_left);
echo &quot;email address : $email&quot;;
?> ______________________________________________________________________

Thanks!

But how would I change that so it'd look for multiple emails in a mysql mediumtext field?

Not sure, kind of looks like it'll work as it is - its late though so I may be wrong, ry it with more than 1 mailto in the string and see what happens. ______________________________________________________________________
