if you're new to this function, and getting an error like
'delimiter must not alphanumeric backslash ...
note that whatever is in $pattern (and only $pattern, not $string, or $replacement) must be enclosed
by '/ /' (note the forward slashes)
e.g.
$pattern = '/and/';
$replacement = 'sandy';
$string = 'me and mine';
generates 'me sandy mine'
seems to be obvious to everyone else, but took me a while to figure out!!
