If you are new to PHP or just need to refresh your skills, this is the place to start. This series of tutorials will give you the basic knowledge you will need to create a simple PHP website.

PHP is a reflective programming language originally designed for producing dynamic web pages.[1] PHP is used mainly in server-side scripting, but can be used from a command line interface or in standalone graphical applications. Textual User Interfaces can also be created using ncurses.

ereg_replace

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

ereg_replace -- Replace regular expression

Description

string ereg_replace ( string pattern, string replacement, string string )

This function scans string for matches to pattern, then replaces the matched text with replacement.

The modified string is returned. (Which may mean that the original string is returned if there are no matches to be replaced.)

If pattern contains parenthesized substrings, replacement may contain substrings of the form \\digit, which will be replaced by the text matching the digit'th parenthesized substring; \\0 will produce the entire contents of string. Up to nine substrings may be used. Parentheses may be nested, in which case they are counted by the opening parenthesis.

If no matches are found in string, then string will be returned unchanged.

For example, the following code snippet prints "This was a test" three times:

Example 1. ereg_replace() example

<?php

$string = "This is a test";
echo str_replace(" is", " was", $string);
echo ereg_replace("( )is", "\\1was", $string);
echo ereg_replace("(( )is)", "\\2was", $string);

?>

One thing to take note of is that if you use an integer value as the replacement parameter, you may not get the results you expect. This is because ereg_replace() will interpret the number as the ordinal value of a character, and apply that. For instance:

Example 2. ereg_replace() example

<?php
/* This will not work as expected. */
$num = 4;
$string = "This string has four words.";
$string = ereg_replace('four', $num, $string);
echo $string;   /* Output: 'This string has   words.' */

/* This will work. */
$num = '4';
$string = "This string has four words.";
$string = ereg_replace('four', $num, $string);
echo $string;   /* Output: 'This string has 4 words.' */
?>

Example 3. Replace URLs with links

<?php
$text = ereg_replace("[[:alpha:]]+://[^<>[:space:]]+[[:alnum:]/]",
                     "<a href=\"\\0\">\\0</a>", $text);
?>

Tip: preg_replace(), which uses a Perl-compatible regular expression syntax, is often a faster alternative to ereg_replace().

See also ereg(), eregi(), eregi_replace(), str_replace(), and preg_match().
