If you enter a URL as:

    url] http://www.scirra.com[/url

It renders as:


It doesn't render a valid URL. (Note the space char before URL)  In the format post functions I've changed it to render URLs with regex and it fixes this issue:

    Dim regEx
    Set regEx = New RegExp

    With regEx
        .Pattern = "\[url\]\s*([^\]]+)\s*\[\/url\]"
        .IgnoreCase = True
        .Global = True
    End With
    strMessage = regEx.Replace(strMessage, "<a href=""$1"">$1</a>")

    With regEx
        .Pattern = "\[url=\s*([^\]]+)\s*\]\s*([^\]]+)\s*\[\/url\]"
        .IgnoreCase = True
        .Global = True
    End With
    strMessage = regEx.Replace(strMessage, "<a href=""$1"">$2</a>")

    Set regEx = nothing

Only a small bug but my server emails me 404's, and for some reason a lot of my users seem to be posting urls which render with %20 infront of them

Thanks Gullanian.

Really should look at using Regular Expressions for all the BBcodes.

Yeah RegEx should make it more concise.  I'm thinking about spending some time soon updating the non-rte formatting functions because there's a few more small problems as well, if I get round to it I will post it in here.  It's hard to write some of the things I want to do though because Classic ASP doesn't have things like negative lookbehinds
