note 92933 added to function.str-replace

Something that might seem obvious, that had me searching the documentation for a different function... if the text you're replacing looks like a variable i.e. $name. Make sure to use single quotes.. str_replace("{$name}", 'Steve', $string); will search the string for whatever the variable is set to, in my case it wasn't set at all... str_replace('{$name}', 'Steve', $string); Worked correctly as I was aiming for.... ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.35 Probable Submitter: 98.24.228.49 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/92933 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92933 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/92933 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
