Is there a smarty modifier to turn url's into links?

somehting like
{$MESSAGE_BODY}

im hoping for something like
{$MESSAGE_BODY|urls2links}

that will make a clickable link out of something like:
http://google.com

figured it out by building a function in a module.

If there is a jamrom way, then I would love to know, but this works if anyone else is needing it and there isnt a jamroom way.

put this function in a jamroom module (and activate it.).

Code

/**  * takes a block of text and changes any http:// int an href.  * @param  $text  * @return mixed  */ function urls2links($text) {     // The Regular Expression filter     $reg_exUrl = "/(http|https|ftp|ftps)\:\/\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}(\/\S*)?/";     // The Text you want to filter for urls     //$text = "The text you want to filter goes here. http://google.com";     // Check if there is a url in the text     if (preg_match($reg_exUrl, $text, $url)) {         // make the urls hyper links        $ret =  preg_replace($reg_exUrl, '<a href="'.$url[0].'">'.$url[0].'</a> ', $text);     } else {         // if no urls in the text just return the text         $ret =  $text;     }     return $ret; }

then use:
{$MESSAGE_TEXT|urls2links}
and its good to go.
