Re: Change color of anything in double/single quotes

That's what I was just about saying, in addition try to add the HTML entities to the regular expression as well: $string = preg_replace('/(?:& #34;|")(.*?)(?:& #34;|")/', '<font color="color">"\\1"</font>', $string); Also if you don't to get caught by the HTML validator you better surround the color name with double quotes ;) HTH, Nitsan On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 9:42 PM, Daniel Brown <danbrown@php.net> wrote: > On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 13:50, Marc Steinert <lists@bithub.net> wrote: > > > > $string = preg_replace('/"(.*?)"/', '<font > > color=color>"\\1"</font>', > > $string); > > Close, but I'd also recommend dropping in a 'Us' modifier so that > it is Ungreedy and spans lines. > > <?php > $regexp = '/"(.*?)"/Us'; > ?> > > -- > </Daniel P.
