Re: Question on explode and join.

I made some changes to the script from Butera. Now it only replaces complete words. $dirty = array( 'ipsum', 'eloquentiam', 'Vero' ); foreach ($dirty as $key => $word) { $dirty[$key] = '/\b'. $word . '\b/'; } $string = "Lorem ipsum ius no etiam veniam, usu alii novum ne, sed cu molestiae eloquentiam. Vero invenire philosophia est ne, quo nemore timeam an."; $clean = preg_replace($dirty, '*', $string); echo "<br>string: ". $string; echo "<br>clean: ". $clean; On 9/13/06, Beauford <php-user@netscan.ca> wrote:

There ya go. Works and is shorter than what I did. Thanks. One other question. if I have bunny and bunnyhole in the badword array. if someone types in bunnyhole, I end up getting *hole in the clean string. If I change the order of the words in the array would that solve the problem? Thanks
