Is there a module for this?

Hi,
Using Drupal 6.

Please could someone tell me if there is a module available to turn pre-determined text into hyperlinks? For example if I type the word "myself" into content, can a module add a hyperlink to a page named 'myself' and underline the word so that users can see it is a link to another page?

I have been looking through the available modules but not have spotted anything just yet.

Thanks for your help,
Mickey

Alinks?

There is a module called Alinks (http://drupal.org/project/alinks) which does something very similar, but it is for Drupal 5.x at the moment.

Perhaps you could post an issue to the Alinks project and find out how long the Drupal 6.x version will take to release.

You many modules already

Many modules already have issues for a d6 port-- check the issues queue. You can track the alinks drupal port at http://drupal.org/node/221868

Also, it's often easier to find a module by searching-- just add "type:project_project" to some keywords in the d.o. search box. Also, there's a new site for searching modules at http://drupalmodules.com
