Hello.

I would like to do the following. I write a story/page using HTML. BUt in the text I would like to use my own "tags" which should be substituted before sending to a browser. E.g.

I write:
[[storage]]/IMAGES/img.jpg

but when I will view a page there should be
http://www.storage.com/IMAGES/img.jpg

(I use it for the external links, but there is a chance that I will need to move the storage and I won't rewrite all stories/pages by hand.)

By the way, there are other occasions where I would like to parse a text of story before presenting to the viewer.

Try adapting an existing module's (such as URLFilter) implementation of hook_filter (http://api.drupal.org/api/4.7/function/hook_filter) in your own custom module for you website.

Thanks.

I tried urlfilter (not rewriting yet) but the problem is that I need to run filter not when I'm composing story but when I view it. Urlfilter is filter which works only as a part of Input Format. But I don't want anything which run only once as a part of Input Format.

Do you know the solution?

Great!

I found the I misunderstood how the Input Formats Works. I thought that it works only once when the page is created. And due to the previous I found that I can change it later with the complete reformat of page ;)

Cool. Thanks. I think the reprograming of urlfilter is everything I need.
