Below are two calls to preg_replace() with different replacement
strings. For some reason, they both return the same string.
$s = "A backslash: \\ ";
$s1 = preg_replace("/\\\\/", "\\\\\\", $s);
$s2 = preg_replace("/\\\\/", "\\\\\\\\", $s);
echo "s : $s \n";
echo "s1: $s1 \n";
echo "s2: $s2 \n";
------------------
Output:
s : A backslash: \
s1: A backslash: \\
s2: A backslash: \\
------------------
My configuration:
'./configure' '--with-gnu-ld' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs'
'--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql'
