There is a small problem with this one. Try inserting this: This is a link to http://coalition.iforums.us/risca-vm2.html, please visit. The comma sign will be considered part of the URL, while it is actually not.

@Vordreller: Thanks for catching that, guess that's what I get for grabbing the regex from someone else :) I'll have to update that after I test a few similar situations.

Updated regex, trying to get closer to w3c URI spec. Last char must be either: letter,number, ?,#, =, /
