Use this function to parse a string for url or mailto addresses. If there is a @ sign and a . it replaces it with
mailt:(that string),
and also looks for http://

Use in the following format:
$new_str = parse_body($str);
echo("$str");

Well,
 you could of course read on Regular Expressions... they can do all your code in one single line.
