Re[2]: [PHP] ereg_replace help

Hello Chris, Thursday, March 18, 2004, 3:28:01 PM, you wrote: CH> did you try CH> $output = ereg_replace('[^[:alnum:]]', '', $string); CH> ? Nope, because in the only reference book I had to hand it said the ^ matched the start of a string so it didn't occur to me to try it. Thanks to John I now know when used in a block it's no longer limited to the start of the string. The code you posted above works, thanks. -- Best regards, Richard Davey http://www.phpcommunity.org/wiki/296.html
