Methods

public static alternate( ) (defined in Kohana_Text)

Alternates between two or more strings.

echo Text::alternate('one', 'two'); // "one"
echo Text::alternate('one', 'two'); // "two"
echo Text::alternate('one', 'two'); // "one"

Note that using multiple iterations of different strings may produce unexpected results.

Return Values

  • string

Source Code

public static function alternate()
{
	static $i;

	if (func_num_args() === 0)
	{
		$i = 0;
		return '';
	}

	$args = func_get_args();
	return $args[($i++ % count($args))];
}

Converts text email addresses and anchors into links. Existing links will not be altered.

echo Text::auto_link($text);

This method is not foolproof since it uses regex to parse HTML.

Parameters

  • string $text required - Text to auto link

Tags

Return Values

  • string

Source Code

public static function auto_link($text)
{
	// Auto link emails first to prevent problems with "[email protected]"

}

Converts text email addresses into links. Existing links will not be altered.

echo Text::auto_link_emails($text);

	// Find and replace all email addresses that are not part of an existing html mailto anchor
	// Note: The "58;" negative lookbehind prevents matching of existing encoded html mailto anchors
	//       The html entity for a colon (:) is : or : or : etc.
	return preg_replace_callback('~\b(?<!href="mailto:|58;)(?!\.)[-+_a-z0-9.]++(?<!\.)@(?![-.])[-a-z0-9.]+(?<!\.)\.[a-z]{2,6}\b(?!</a>)~i', 'Text::_auto_link_emails_callback', $text);
