Re: Replace in a string with regex

Hello, I’m tryng to make some replacements on a string. Everything goês fine until the regular expression. $file = "screens/temp/7a45gfdi6icpan1jtb1j99o925_1_main.jpg"; echo $a = str_replace(array(7a45gfdi6icpan1jtb1j99o925, 'temp/',’_([0-9])’), array(“test”,"",””), $file) The idea is to remove /temp and the last _1 from the file name..but i’m only getting this: screens/test_1_main.jpg I want it to be: screens/test_main.jpg

Sometimes it's helpful to break a problem into smaller problems: <?php

    $a = str_replace( '/temp/', '/', $file );
    $a = preg_replace( '#_\d+_#', '_', $a );

    echo $a."\n";
