IM/Email type scenario:
User types whatever they want and sends it to their buddy. If they enter a URL, I want to make it clickable for the recipient. This means we need to identify a sequence of characters within the string is a valid URI and make a hyperlink out of it.
Is there a library to help parse the user input and detect if the user types an internationalized domain name as part of a string?
example:
hey dude this Russian McDonald's site макдональдс.рф is cool - check it out!
Note I am not talking about parsing the URI or doing punycode/Unicode conversions - I need to be able to identify this as a URI first before doing any of that...
