auto_link with <p> tags - El Forum - 07-26-2010

Hi All,
I've come across with a problem using the URL Helper -> auto_link function.
I'm currently creating a forum in which I use the TinyMCE JS editor for the posts, when I return back the main post the JS automatically enters the <p> tags for each new line in the database, this isn't a problem but even when passing the function around the description it's not correctly returning a linked URL.
example:
Code:
auto_link("<p>www.shopto.net</p>")Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

Yup, looks like a bug. Feel free to file a bug report Konfine. you can get around it by adding spaces before your url.

I'm running into this same bug. Wouldn't this just be a quick adjustment to the RegEx here?
Code:
if ($type != 'email')
{
if (preg_match_all("#(^|\s|\()((http(s?)://)|(www\.))(\w+[^\s\)\<]+)#i", $str, $matches))
{I'm not very good with RegEx. Anybody know how to fix this so links within paragraph (or other) tags will be auto-linked?
Thanks!
