Adding Clickable links and TextArea.html posted on: 9/6/08
Description: I really wanted clickable links in my Twitter pod and I saw how easy Steve did it so I used his really nice regex.
As per my original design I really wanted my Twitter feed to be a bit less generic so I remove my name from the start of each post and add a date stamp each entry looping over the 10 most recent tweets.
I'm quite happy with the result.
At first I was only using TextArea.text and not getting nice links when I saw there is also TextArea.html this is really nice and I can see many places I can use this in any data centric application.
