    copied!<p>[[EDIT]]</p> <p>Line 32 changed from:</p> <pre><code>last = lowest.end; </code></pre> <p>to:</p> <pre><code>last = lowest.end + idx; </code></pre> <hr> <p>As I mentioned in the comment...really blows the code out a little. The alternative is to pull in an existing AS2 regexp library. Last I looked (5 years ago), the AS2 regexp implementations were not 100% with regards to expression support. I'm sure there is a shorter way of going about this, but here is the code after a first attempt:</p> <pre><code>String.prototype.replace = function(search:String, replace:String):String { return this.split(search).join(replace); } function linkPaths(text:String, template:String):String { var idx:Number; var lowest:Object; var selectors:Array = [ "http://", "www." ]; var sub:String; var last:Number = 0; var result:String = ""; for(idx=0; idx&lt;text.length; idx++) { sub = text.substring(idx); lowest = findLowestSelector(sub, selectors); if(!lowest) { break; } result += text.substring(last, lowest.start + idx) + template.replace("${url}", sub.substring(lowest.start, lowest.end)); last = lowest.end + idx; idx += lowest.end; } return result; } function findLowestSelector(text:String, selectors:Array):Object { var idx:Number; var index:Number; var start:Number = Number.MAX_VALUE; var end:Number = -1; for(idx=0; idx&lt;selectors.length; idx++) { index = text.indexOf(selectors[idx]); if ( index != -1 &amp;&amp; index &lt; start ) { start = index; index = text.indexOf(" ", start); end = index == -1 ? text.length : index ; } } return start != -1 ? { start: start, end: end } : null ; } trace(linkPaths ( "test text here http://www.test.com is a link, along with www.test.com", "&lt;a href='${url}' target='_blank'&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;font color='#666666'&gt;${url}&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;" )); </code></pre> <p>Let me know if there are any issues. The findLowestSelector method uses a single blank space, or end of line to dictate the end value in the return object.</p> <p>Been a while since I've worked with AS2...</p> <p>Best of luck!</p>
