Note Submitter: jolt@nospam.com ---- It has been mentioned up above that using a subpattern as a key to lookup a value in an associative array is not possible. After much trial and error, I found this not to be the case - here is how to do it: $result = preg_replace('/%%(.*)%%/sUe', "\$array['\\1']", $ascii); I hope this helps somebody as it took me a while to figure out. Thanks to everybody else who have contributed their notes as well.
