note 98370 added to function.str-replace

If you wish to get around the 'gotcha', you could do something like this: <?php $find=array('a', 'p', '^', '*'); $replace = array('^', '*', 'apple', 'pear'); str_replace($find, $replace, 'a p'); ?> The idea here is that you first replace the items you want with unique identifiers (that you are unlikely to find in the subject) and then search for those identifiers and then replace them. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 71.56.222.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98370 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98370 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98370 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
