Recognize URLs typed in textarea

Hi.... I am sure you must have come across an editor that recognizes the URL typed into it dynamically (e.g. MS Word - as soon as you type 'http://sometext' it recognizes it as a possible URL and highlights it by changing its color and underlining it.....Can I do the same in a HTML textarea component? ...... I am pretty new to Web development....I tried by writing a Javascript onchange function for the textarea and the searching for the string 'http....', but this is exactly where I lost it as I am not sure how can I change the appearance of the text within the text-area.

 

I would be happy even if I am able to change the appearance of the 'http' string rather than presenting it as an active link to another page. Is there any other approach I can take? Can I use any other component?

 

Thanks in advance
