Re: ereg(_replace) help

I think I know the syntax for preg_replace(). You include everything in a character class [], and the leading ^ means a logic NOT. $string = preg_replace("/[^\w\d\+\!\@\#\$\%\^\&\*\(\)\[\]\{\}\\\|\;\:\'\"\,\.\<\>\/\?\+\=\~\`\_\-]+/","", $string); \w = word character \d = digit everything else is literal. Include each one you wan to keep, and make sure \- is last in the character class. Monte Ed Vul wrote: > > Uhm...
