[FX.php List] [OT] Did any of you make a function for parsing links from text fields?

Here's one code snippet, as simple as it can be. If you want more  
features it needs to be modified (for example allow empty urls/texts,  
or validate/restrict invalid syntax).

$a = '[url=www.google.com]Search[/url]';
$b = preg_replace('/\[url=([^\]]+)\]([^\[]+)\[\/url\]/', '<a  
href="$1">$2</a>', $a);
print($b);

Is that syntax from FileMaker? It looks like BBcode as well. If  
FileMaker uses the same syntax maybe you can use parts of a BBcode  
library. Just a thought.
