Is there anyone else than me that would find it useful to be able to do: <?php $string = 'foo bar'; $replacements = array( 'foo' => 'FOO', 'bar' => 'BAR'); // Prints "FOO BAR" echo str_replace($replacements, $string); ?> With current behaviour one has to do: <?php $string = 'foo bar'; $replacements = array( 'foo' => 'FOO', 'bar' => 'BAR'); // Prints "FOO BAR" echo str_replace(array_keys($replacements), array_values($string)); ?>
