I can have long text which can contain either of the following : 

http://desktop.com/

and 

<a href="http://desktop.com/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://desktop.com">http://desktop.com</a>

My query is that I need to get all the stand alone URLs which are not currently present at links using Regex as then I will change the standalone Urls to links.

Also, another point is that the links can appear anywhere in the text , at the starting/in-between/ending of a line.

  • Basically you will need to loop over the elements and check to see if their text contains a link. – epascarello Jan 21 '16 at 13:43
