Note Submitter: steveo6500 ---- Just to add another "don't-do-this-unless-you-want-a-headache" note... I started with preg_replace a little bit ago and the numbers in the second arguement of the function was confusing me. For example... <?php preg_replace("|\[div](.+)\[/div]|ise", "<div class='whatever'>\\1</div>", $string); ?> "\\1" is the first parenthysised (I can never spell that word...) group, in this case whatever is inside the [div][/div] tags, or .+ in this example. For some reason, "\$1" doesn't work with me.
