Re: rewrite urls with preg_replace

Hi Dieter, You need to use the 'e' modifier as well as 'is' in your pattern. Have a look in the manual, here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/pcre.pattern.modifiers.php "If this modifier is set, preg_replace() does normal substitution of backreferences in the replacement string, evaluates it as PHP code, and uses the result for replacing the search string." Also look here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php And check the "Example 2. Using /e modifier" part. Hope that helps ;) James "Dieter Koch" <dieter.koch@lhsystems.com> wrote in message news:20021128122926.82026.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > Hi to all the PHP-Fans out there, > > i have a syntax-problem with the folowing preg_replace command: > > $returnString = preg_replace("/(href=\")(.+?)(\")/is", > preg_quote("\\1".ebLinkEncode(."\\2".)."\\3"), $returnString); > > i'm trying to call my own function within a preg_replace function and it > won't work. > any ideas ? it seems to me, that the quoting is incorrect, but i'm not > shure, why it is incorrect, > especially because i use preg_quote() ... > > thanks in advance for some hints ! > > best regards > dieter.koch@lhsystems.com > > > > >
