If so, do that before the eregi_replace, add "send.php?addr=" to the beginning, and pass the temp var to eregi_replace. I know, it's a whole extra line of code, but at least you can test and make sure hash_func() is doing the right thing. Maybe you could try enclosing "send.php?addr=" . hash_func("\\1@\\2.\\3") In another set of () to enforce operator precedence? Ie. ( "send.php?addr=" . hash_func("\\1@\\2.\\3")) Just a thought.
