note 16995 added to function.preg-replace

The explanation says: If pattern is an array and replacement is a string; then this replacement string is used for every value of pattern. The converse would not make sense, though. I wonder why the converse is not valid. I wish to replace every nth occurance of one pattern with the nth value of an array. Why shouln't this be possible with this function? -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+16995 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+16995 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+16995
