Dose anybody know if I want to replace the word which exactly begin with the word and maybe have some postfix changing. For instance I want to replace "good", "goodes", "goodbye" to new words, but not change "togood". I use

    $word="good";
    $ins="^".$word;
    str_place($ins,"newword",$line);

but it does not work, any ideas? please reply this email. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
