It shouldn't be laborious, if the array's values were--as you implied--compatible with str_replace. You're replacing an array of straight string values, correct? So just escape the regex special values (preg_quotes()) in each while you're looping through the array to add the pattern delimiters and "i" modifier. Then pass that array to preg_replace. -- CC
