note 97526 added to function.str-replace

Here's a deep replace function allowing multi-dimensional arrays in $search, $replace and $subject. The keys and other structure of $subject are preserved. <?php // Auxiliary function: function _replaceWithAnything($search,$replace,$subject){ if(!is_array($search) || !is_array($replace)){ $search=array($search); $replace=array($replace); } $match=array_search($subject,$search,true); if($match!==false && array_key_exists($match,$replace)) $subject=$replace[$match]; return $subject; } // Main function: function deepReplace($search,$replace,$subject){ if(!is_array($subject)) return _replaceWithAnything($search,$replace,$subject); foreach($subject as &$val){ if(is_array($val)){ $val=deepReplace($search,$replace,$val); continue; } $val=_replaceWithAnything($search,$replace,$val); } return $subject; } ?> ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 94.193.45.0 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/97526 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/97526 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/97526 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
