hyperlinks

I would like to be able to automatically create a hyperlink when a user types into the wprichedit something like [](http://www.google.com). Is this possible? Thanks

Please use the flag 'autoDetectHypelinks' in EditOptions.

This requires the brand new V5.12

downloaded ver 5.12 and it works very well except when you finish a link like [](http://www.google.com) and then press space the hyperlink continues without breaking for the space. Also if possible it would be great to get ftp:// as well. Thanks

Hi,

Yes, it is not possible to do it otherwise without disturbing the editing a lot. It must be possible to have spaces in the text. It is up to the user to press 'cursor right' when the link is complete.

Also if possible it would be great to get ftp:// as well. Thanks

The code is in unit WPCtrMemo - it uses the new GetHistoryChars function which can ne useful for many things, such as text completion.

If you add this lines

s := GetHistoryChars(5);
if s='ftp:/' then MakeLinkLastChars(5);

right after the code in line 3514

s := GetHistoryChars(6);
if s='http:/' then MakeLinkLastChars(6);

you can check for 'ftp' links, too.

FYI my users are having a hard time with not being able to space after a hyperlink to cause it to stop hyperlinking. They expect it to work like outlook and therefore are calling tech support with what they perceive as a bug. Thanks for your help.

I took care about this for next release.
