<p>Note that the original string is <strong>not</strong> modified by this
function. The results need to be put in a variable or printed. For example:</p>
<pre>$newstring = preg_replace("/oldtext/i", "newtext",
$originalstring);</pre>
<p>Nothing happens to $originalstring, unlike in Perl substitutions.</p>
