Regex: parse multiple URLS as links

[Jeru]

I am trying to automatically parse URLS as a link in a text. It works with the script below. But the it only parses one link, not multiple. I am banging my head against the wall for hours now to solves this problem, can anyone help?

// The Regular Expression filter
$reg_exUrl = "/(http|https|ftp|ftps)\:\/\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}(\/\S*)?/";

// The Text you want to filter for urls
$text = "This is my note with a link: https://domain.com/application.php?i=VHubsKu2ly7EfHXVLhEe# and with another link http://domain.com";

// Check if there is a url in the text
if(preg_match($reg_exUrl, $text, $url)) {

       // make the urls hyper links
       echo preg_replace($reg_exUrl, '<a href="'.$url[0].'" rel="nofollow">link ></a>', $text);

} else {

       // if no urls in the text just return the text
       echo $text;

}

You should use preg_match_all instead of preg_match.

Thanks Gvre for your reply.

I changed it to preg_match_all but it doesn't work as expected, the urls are not parsed properly.
Do you have any hints?

PHP Code:

$Note = "This is my note with a link: https://domain.com/application.php?i=VHubsKu2ly7EfHXVLhEe# and with another link http://domain.com";


$reg_exUrl = "/(http|https|ftp|ftps)\:\/\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}(\/\S*)?/";
$stripped = preg_match_all($reg_exUrl, $Note, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER);

foreach ($matches as $val) {
        $Note = preg_replace($reg_exUrl, '<a href="'.$val[0].'">link </a>', $Note);
} 
echo "$Note";

You could use something like this

PHP Code:

$Note = "This is my note with a link: https://domain.com/application.php?i=VHubsKu2ly7EfHXVLhEe# and with another link http://domain.com and this is another url http://www.foo.com/bar";

$pattern = '#((?:http|ftp)s?://\S+)#i';
if (preg_match_all($pattern, $Note, $matches))
{
        foreach ($matches[1] as $val)
                $Note = str_replace($val, "<a href=\"$val\">link</a>", $Note);
        echo $Note;
}

Yes, that's it!
