Simple reg help please i want to match the last "," in "a,b,c,d" and replace it with " and "

Without using a regexp, you could do: <code> $string = 'a,b,c,d'; $letters = explode(',', $string); $last_letter = array_pop($letters); $final_string = implode(',', $letters) . ' and ' . $last_letter; </code> Not very efficient - but should work... Silvio

Nah found a solution ^^ My regular expression is as follows: ereg_replace (",([[:alnum:][:space:]]*)$"," and \\1",$string) Thanks for the help =) Note: that expression does not work with string who have other signs than "," in it e.g. "!" or "?". Barry -- Smileys rule (cX.x)C --o(^_^o)
