Re: Eliminating all lowercase words

Thanks Michal, That's what I thought at first, but it eliminates all lowercase letters in a capitalized word as well. I plugged away at it and got it to work: $search = "(\b[a-z][a-z]*?\b)"; $replace = ""; $add = preg_replace($search, $replace, $add); Thanks for the help!
