note 121288 added to function.preg-replace

Could really do with a PERL -> PHP conversion example or 2. I'm happy with perl regexps and love the way you can do things like $var =~ s/regexp/regexp/; PHP equivalent would be a preg_replace but I've just spent 4 hours failing to get it to work. All I get is syntax complaints about my arguments, even though my regexp seems to match up with appropriate examples. Nothing found in PHP.ini that might affect this. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 79.77.11.78 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/121288 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/121288 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/121288 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
