Java : replacing text URL with clickable HTML link

Question

I am trying to do some stuff with replacing String containing some URL to a browser compatible linked URL.

My initial String looks like this :

\"hell

Assuming your regex works to capture the correct info, you can use backreferences in your substitution. See the Java regexp tutorial.

In that case, you'd do

myString.replaceAll(....., "\1")
