I want my users to be able to insert links in their profile, but obviously they can''t use html. I want to solve this by allowing them to do [link="http://theirurl.com"][/link]. Any idea how I would go about this?

I would consider using Textile or Markdown. Take a look at the RedCloth gem. http://whytheluckystiff.net/ruby/redcloth/ -Dan Manges http://www.dcmanges.com/blog On Sep 22, 11:12 pm, Kyle Murphy <rails-mailing-l...-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> I want my users to be able to insert links in their profile, but > obviously they can''t use html. > > I want to solve this by allowing them to do > [link="http://theirurl.com"][/link].

linker = Regexp.new(/\[link="(.*?)"](.*?)\[\/link]/)
<%= @user.profile.gsub(linker){|m| "<a
href=''#{m[0]}''
class=''whatever''>#{m[1]}</a>"} %>
