Replace a URL with its domain name and create link

Published in: PHP 

Worst title ever. Basically, this takes a string like: "Check this out: http://snipplr.com/view/5759/replace-a-url-its-domain-name-and-create-link/" and replaces it with "Check this out: snipplr.com [with a link to the full URL]"

Plain TextExpand 
  1. preg_replace("/http:\/\/([^\/]+)[^\s]*/", "<a href='$0'>$1</a>", $text);
