note 46661 added to function.str-replace

If you have got an array like <?php $array = array( 'Peter' => 'Thomas (old name: Peter)', 'Anne' => 'Deborah (old name: Anne)', 'Julia' => 'Maria (old name: Julia)', 'Jona' => 'Joseph (old name: Jona)' ); ?> And you want to replace Peter with Thomas, Anne with Deborah and so on, you can use: <?php $string = 'Julia loves Peter but he loves Anne and Jona loves Julia'; $string = str_replace(array_keys($array), $array, $string); // output: echo $string; ?> It works fine.
