I already had two regex functions to parse url's and replies from a json twitter response but I tried to extend it to parse hash tags aswell but I am getting undefined
displayed in palce of the hashtag:
// process links, reply and hash tags
tweet = tweet.replace(/(\b(https?|ftp|file):\/\/[-A-Z0-9+&@#\/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[-A-Z0-9+&@#\/%=~_|])/ig, function(url) {
return '<a href="'+url+'">'+url+'</a>';
}).replace(/B@([_a-z0-9]+)/ig, function(reply) {
return reply.charAt(0)+'<a href="http://twitter.com/'+reply.substring(1)+'">'+reply.substring(1)+'</a>';
}).replace(/#([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/g), function(hash) {
return '<a class="hashtag" target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/#search?q='+$1+'">#'+$1+'</a>';
};
Any pointers on where I'm going wrong?
