You do need to be able to understand preg pattern matching to be able to understand this, but something like:

PHP Code:


			

function BBParser($szInput)
{

 $aBBPattern = array(
                     '[b](.*?)[/b]' => '<b>\\1</b>',
                     '[i](.*?)[/i]' => '<i>\\1</i>',
                     '[url=([^\]+?)](.*?)[/url]' => '<a href="\\1">\\2</a>'
                     );

 foreach( $aBBPattern as $szKey => $szValue )
 {
    $szPattern = '/'. preg_quote( $szKey, '/' ) .'/is';
    $szInput    = preg_replace( $szPattern, $szValue, $szInput );
 }

 return $szInput;

}

Remember this isnt tested, but the theory is there :)
