Re: Replace a string in array then re-write line.

You should look at strtr - http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtr.php either swap string into 'nother string according to target, or swap array into string, using array fields as target. Also, check preg_replace: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php regards, jaxon On 3/8/01 11:32 PM, "enthalpy" <enthalpy@core.com> wrote: > > im just using 2 flat files. is there any kind of freplace? or can i use > str_replace to re-write the line? > > <-----CoreComm-Internet-Services---http://core.com-----> > (Jon Marshall CoreComm Services Chicago) > (jonathon.marshall@core.com Systems Engineer II) > (enthalpy@core.com Network Operations) > <-----Enthalpy.org-------------http://enthalpy.org-----> > (enthalpy@enthalpy.org The World of Nothing) > <------------------------------------------------------> > > On Thu, 8 Mar 2001, Jaxon wrote: > >> Jon, >> >> I've done something similar with strtr(), pulling the array from a database >> and swapping the result set into a file. >> >> $fd = fopen ($file, "r"); >> $string = fread ($fd, filesize ($template)); >> fclose ($fd); >> >> $array = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC); >> echo (strtr($string, $array)); >> >> just my .02: >> >> regards, >> jaxon >> >> >> >> >> On 3/8/01 10:53 PM, "enthalpy" <enthalpy@core.com> wrote: >> >>> >>> ok so im using fopen to read a file split each line in to an array.
