note 95198 added to function.str-replace

Feel free to optimize this using the while/for or anything else, but this is a bit of code that allows you to replace strings found in an associative array. For example: <?php $replace = array( 'dog' => 'cat', 'apple' => 'orange' 'chevy' => 'ford' ); $string = 'I like to eat an apple with my dog in my chevy'; echo str_replace_assoc($replace,$string); // Echo: I like to eat an orange with my cat in my ford ?> Here is the function: <?php function str_replace_assoc($array,$string){ $from_array = array(); $to_array = array(); foreach ($array as $k => $v){ $from_array[] = $k; $to_array[] = $v; } return str_replace($from_array,$to_array,$string); } ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 72.160.54.241 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95198 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95198 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95198 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
