[Phpwebsite-developers] Converting text to links

[Bob T <bo...@el...>]

I have a function that converts http://  to web link and email 
addresses to mailto links in text.

I want to add it to the Announcements display code.  It would be nice 
if the links were automatically created,  rather than expecting 
people to know how to create a url with "<a href[".   I'd like to do 
it prior to release of 8.2.  It does not affect the stored data 
because the processing is done at display time, and if text already 
contains http:// language it is left alone.

Does anyone object to this?  

Bob T.
