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 strReplaceAssoc(array $replace, $subject) {
return str_replace(array_keys($replace), array_values($replace), $subject);
}
?>
