[Editor's Note: The carat character has special meaning within a regular expression - it
indicates the start of a string.]
For those who, just like me, have been reading through the above and thought: 'yeah
right', here is a little clue on the difference between ereg_replace and str_replace.
ereg_replace can not be used in the following way and str_replace can:
<pre>
$intovar = ereg_replace("^", " ", $outofvar);
The return will be just the same. Strange, because it is said to be binary save.
The following can be used for all reading-characters (I hope)(.,:;!@#$%^&*()_+, etc)
$intovar = str_replace("^", " ", $outofvar);
</pre>
Mark.
