JavaScript prototype functions to parse out twitter action items into HTML

Twitter URL Parsers

//Twitter Parsers
String.prototype.parseURL = function() {
    return this.replace(/[A-Za-z]+://[A-Za-z0-9-_]+.[A-Za-z0-9-_:%&~?/.=]+/g, function(url) {
        return url.link(url);
    });
};
String.prototype.parseUsername = function() {
    return this.replace(/[@]+[A-Za-z0-9-_]+/g, function(u) {
        var username = u.replace("@","")
        return u.link("https://twitter.com/"+username);
    });
};
String.prototype.parseHashtag = function() {
    return this.replace(/[#]+[A-Za-z0-9-_]+/g, function(t) {
        var tag = t.replace("#","%23")
        return t.link("https://twitter.com/search?q="+tag+”&src=hash”);
    });
};

Thanks for the sharing, the last function should be updated to new address (2014):

String.prototype.parseHashtag = function() {
    return this.replace(/[#]+[A-Za-z0-9-_]+/g, function(t) {
        var tag = t.replace("#","")
        return t.link("https://twitter.com/hashtag/"+tag);
    });
};

I think you need to escape forward slashes in parseURL function:

// replace
/[A-Za-z]+://[A-Za-z0-9-_]+.[A-Za-z0-9-_:%&~?/.=]+/g
// to
/[A-Za-z]+:\/\/[A-Za-z0-9-_]+.[A-Za-z0-9-_:%&~?/.=]+/g
