Where to look ?

[fla5h]

I guess its just experience, but when you peeps think about doing a hack, how do you know where to look ?

I have a hack I want to code, basically a modification to the [Auto Parse Url's]

Instead of just doing a <a href> I want to call a javascript function, anyone know where to start looking for this function in VB that assigns the auto parse urls ?

Or any tips on how to find track down parts of code in vb ?

Thanks

Mmm, sorry I guess this should be in General Hacking Discussion ?

Can a mod move it there if required.

yes you are right, it's mainly just experience...

as for your example, it is within a function which is called from different files (new post, new pm, new calendar and so on) so you should look into functions.php

it's the bbcodeparse2 function

thanks for the pointers Xenon

I'll have a look, I'm unsure at the moment what would be the best thing to do, this would only take care of the url's that are uncoded, I might see if I can add something to the censor options to do the same thing.

I guess my main problem is getting the string that the http or www is in.

MMMmmm

Looking again
