I got a working edit of his script here since it seems he's not going to be updating it: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/34397

Some of the links here are not linkified at all or just partially linkified: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/...

May this be fixed? Thanks

This is one the better linkification scripts. Thanks.

Attempts to catch links like google.com
^^
google.com doesn't link automatically...

I fixed the regular expression so that it doesn't cut off some urls at special charactars ('=', ':', ';', etc). Maybe you can implement it in the script. If you are using this and want to fix that, just click the 'Edit' button in the Greasmonkey menu, then change the current reg exp for this (on line 44).


var regex = /\b((?:http|shttp|https):\/\/)?(\w(\w|-)+\.)+(dk|com|net|org|se|no|nl|us|uk|de|it|nu|edu|info)(\/\w*)*(\.\w{2,4}){0,1}([?#&=:;]\w*)*\b/gi;

well now i see it works here but when i'm in a forum that has text urls in their code boxes it doesn't work but the other linkify scripts works for those.

it seems to not work on links that have a "=" sign in them. just cuts off before the "=" not completing the link like http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YD7YIP47

hope you can fix i really like this script cuz of the google.com catches.

LenR: I have created a script that does just that -- but only for email addresses: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/23362

I wrote that script in just under an hour, so it makes you wonder just how pointless those patterns really are. But, from a spammer's perspective, it would require too much processing power and not entirely practical (for the moment) to scrape each page on the web using a script such as this.

LenR, if they were to create software that did that, it would defeat the whole purpose of changing it, lol

Great script! I'd love to see support to de-cr@pify email address insertions - i.e. turn bob<at>test.com (or {at} _at_ etc) into bob@test.com.
Anyone know what are the differences are between linkify ting (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/2254) and linkify plus (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/1352)? Only one I can see is that ting picks up links like google.com but nothing else.</at>

Is there anyway to make this script work well for the links in google and other search engines?

Sorry, the right source code looks this way:

http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi<wbr>-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=910266-0000<wbr>&amp;PA=**YOURID**&amp;HTML=http://www<wbr>.foo.com/tgp/707/anett<wbr>/bar.html

azulmarino — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 01:27:15 +0000

Please, can you tweak this script to support the following link:

http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi<wbr>-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=910266-0000</wbr><wbr>&PA=**YOURID**&HTML=http://www</wbr><wbr>.foo.com/tgp/707/anett</wbr><wbr>/bar.html</wbr>

Todo list:
1 - ignore "<wbr></wbr>"
2 - support "=", "?", "&", "**".

The rendered textual link looks like this:
http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=9...

This would save me a lot of time since I received regular list of links like this I have to check.
I whish I could do it myselft but I don't understand the source code :(

Ok, I here are some more improvements:
var regex = /\b(https?:\/\/)?([\w\-]+\.)+([a-z]{2,3}|info|name|arpa|aero|asia|coop|jobs|mobi|museum|travel)(\/([\w?#&=.,;\-])*)*\b(\/)?/gi;

Hanjo — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 18:08:14 +0000

This one is even better:
var regex = /\b(http:\/\/|https:\/\/){0,1}(\w(\w|-)+\.)+(dk|com|net|org|se|no|nl|us|uk|de|it|nu|edu|info)(\/\w*)*(\.\w{2,4}){0,1}([\?#&=\-_\.,;]\w*)*\b/gi;

Hanjo — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 18:03:42 +0000

This regexp solves the problem with the equal sign and the https:
var regex = /\b(http:\/\/|https:\/\/){0,1}(\w(\w|-)+\.)+(dk|com|net|org|se|no|nl|us|uk|de|it|nu|edu|info)(\/\w*)*(\.\w{2,4}){0,1}(\?\w*|#\w*|&\w*|=\w*)*\b/gi;

dashes seem to break the links too.
like this:
http://fakeurl.com/files/file-name-here.htm
stops right at the first dash.

This also doesn't link https:// text links

example in the comments at: http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2007...

I'm not convinced that this new version is really an improvement!

I've been running the last version with a few tweaks to fix the problems mentioned in the comments here, and some others.

Unfortunately, despite the script's invitation to "contact me regarding new features, bugfixes or changes that I could integrate into the existing code", I can't see how to make that contact.

adam 3, if you've any interest in my modifications then give me a clue as to how to get in touch and I'll send them along for use / rejection as you see fit...

GM cuts off the last link, just look at http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/1949 there's a link there thats linked up to showtopic, not past =

Zathman — Thu, 31 May 2007 06:12:42 +0000

Doesn't work on urls with equal ('=') signs in them. An example: http://www.extensionsmirror.nl/index.php?showto...

it links up to showtopic

Great script but it won't work with files containing more than one dot. E.g. http://rapidshare.com/files/27614525/GR.part1.rar

I have made a new version that should fix the problems mentioned by meno and BionicTom. Sorry about the slow update. It doesn't work the way i want it to, but it works ok. Please tell if it is not working for you

I have a false positive. When there are multiple periods and a certain word like this...it makes it a link. Maybe this is something that can be fixed?
