I'm trying to find a reliable solution to extract a url from a string of characters. I have a site where users answer questions and in the source box, where they enter their source of information, I allow them to enter a url. I want to extract that url and make it a hyperlink. Similar to how Yahoo Answers does it.

Does anyone know a reliable solution that can do this?

All the solutions I have found work for some URL's but not for others.

Thanks
