I've seen on some forums where if you post a link, IE: http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/08/us/ark...html?hpt=hp_t2 instead it would say "Arkansas man charged in connection with power grid sabotage" but still maintaining the link to the article. How can I achieve this?

You mean like this?

Arkansas man Charged in Connection with Power Grid Sabatoge

Are you looking for something that does this automatically?

Yes that is exactly what I want.

Most of the time people just do this manually using vB default. There's a few products that autolink, but it's situational. For instance, I'm about to re-release a product that can convert links in this manner. But it's site specific. Meaning, you have to have a definition for the particular websites URLs you want to convert when posted.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
