BBCode Magic Links

[eski007]

I need to convert text in posts to clickable truncated links.

i.e. https://www.domain.com/test/index.ph...123&test=13123

in to <a href="www.domai n.com/test/index.php?
com=123123&opti on=123123&test= 13123">www.doma in.com/test/....</a>


I know how to convert links in to clickable links, but I don't know
how to truncate (ShortenText) the URL too so it doesn't cause the
screen to go funny.

Thanks,
Anthony

Anthony,

Try alt.html. This has nothing to do with PHP - it's straight HTML
scripting.

Play around with strlen() & substr().
