I'm trying to port over some Perl to PHP and have come to a string of regular expressions like this. There are probably 30 of them: $message =~ s~\[color=([\w#]+)\](.*?)\[/color\]~<font color="$1">$2</font>~isg; $message =~ s~\[black\](.*?)\[/black\]~<font color=000000>$1</font>~isg; $message =~ s~\[white\](.*?)\[/white\]~<font color=FFFFFF>$1</font>~isg; How can I accomplish the same in PHP? $message = preg_match ("\[color=([\w#]+)\](.*?)\[/color\]", "<font color="$1">$2</font>") I was thinking that is how it would be done but I am getting errors.
