BTW, I found a bug that plugin can't be enabled to use a function for tags. Because, in function plugin_getListField_autotags, $_AUTO_CONF is not declared as global variable.
1) it adds a back slash before every double quote or single quote. This can be by passed by use the html code "
I don't need help at this time.
Later when it calls PLG_replaceTags() to display the content, the autotag receives <a href="www.example.com"></a> in #1 instead of www.example.com. Should I call COM_undoClickableLinks() inside my autotag function? I don't think that will always be correct either.
All I can say is the autotag feature is supposed to make links not parse links. <shrug>
