#33896 [NEW]: limited replacement parameter on ereg_replace function

From: wfernandom2004 at yahoo dot com dot br Operating system: Linux, Ubuntu PHP version: 4.4.0 PHP Bug Type: Regexps related Bug description: limited replacement parameter on ereg_replace function Description: ------------ It is impossible put in the replacement parameter, on ereg_replace function, one literal text of this format: \digit, e.g, \1, because the substrings replacements have preference. It, for me, is interesting when preparing string substituitions previously, with the ereg_replace function. Reproduce code: --------------- echo ereg_replace("a", "\\\\0", "bbabb"); Expected result: ---------------- bb\0bb Actual result: -------------- bbabb -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33896&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=33896&r=mysqlcfg
