note 74409 added to function.preg-replace

Important. When you have replacement text like this: $r='One $, $12.50 \\12.50 \\\\12.50 \1'; that enters: preg_replace('/pattern/',"replacement with $r in it",$text) The result is corrupted as $1 or \\1 type patternswill get replaced/removed. Solution (it seems): use this on $r: $r=str_replace(array('\\','$'),array('\\\\','\$'),$r); ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 201.66.212.183 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74409 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74409 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74409 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
