Hi,

You could use a global =)

New global named: make_links_active

Call in template with;

<%make_links_active($Field)%>

..and put the following code in the global;

Code:
sub { 

  my $desc = $_[0]; 
  $desc =~ s|\Qhttp://\E(.*?)\s+|<a href="http://$1">http://$1</a> |sig; 
  return $desc; 

}

Untested, but should hopefully work :)

Cheers
