Bug #73139 [Com]: php throws error on OK function call

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73139&edit=1 ID: 73139 Comment by: jim dot michaels at Jesusnjim dot com Reported by: jim dot michaels at Jesusnjim dot com Summary: php throws error on OK function call Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Unknown/Other Function Operating System: vista 32 amd PHP Version: 7.1.0RC2 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: ReplaceComment is now functioning. I missed the quote. but the function that calls it to replace multiple content tagged items in a file does not work. menu7a.php in http://Jesusnjim.com/z/menu7a.zip does not handle switch statements correctly. to use, you must copy config7a-example.php to config7a.php and edit config7a.php with your web site setup. it is almost done, but I think there is a bug in my code and in php because funny things are happening and things that should happen don't, like replacing file content. I have to go to bed right now, pick up in the morning I hope.
