Write a template for text nodes, which tests if the text contains the string 'http://' and then using XPath string manipulation functions replace the link text with an element that contains the link. Write a recursive one, so that if a single text node contains multiple URLs, all get transformed. Come back to us if you have problems in writing the stylesheet.
