[PHP] preg_replace is modifying the type of replacement parameter !!
Hi guys, When I use preg_replace with an array of integer as the replacement parameter, this function modifies the type of each array element to string. I don't understand why it alters the content of the array while this variable is not pass by reference (True or not ??). I have just upgraded to PHP 4.0.6 and it I don't think it was the case in PHP 4.0.4 (the version I was using before, without this problem). Here is a short example that demonstrate my problem. ?php $ary_pattern = array(@One@); $ary_replace = array(1); $string_before = One example; echo gettype($ary_replace[0]); // This line outputs 'integer' $string_after = preg_replace($ary_pattern, $ary_replace, $string_before); echo br$string_afterbr; echo gettype($ary_replace[0]); // This line outputs 'string' ? Is this a bug from preg_replace or am I doing wrong somewhere? Any help would be appreciated. Regards.

Re: [PHP] preg_replace is modifying the type of replacement parameter !!
Hmmm, RegEx work on strings, so the engine needs strings. Because of that your
integers are converted to strings, if you want to
give their life back make
foreach ($arr as $k=$v){
$arr[$k]+=0;
}
Now all are integers.

Hi guys,
When I use preg_replace with an array of integer as the replacement
parameter, this function modifies the type of each array element to string.
I don't understand why it alters the content of the array while this
variable is not pass by reference (True or not ??).
I have just upgraded to PHP 4.0.6 and it I don't think it was the case in
PHP 4.0.4 (the version I was using before, without this problem).
Here is a short example that demonstrate my problem.
?php
$ary_pattern = array(@One@);
$ary_replace = array(1);
$string_before = One example;
echo gettype($ary_replace[0]); // This line outputs 'integer'
$string_after = preg_replace($ary_pattern, $ary_replace, $string_before);
echo br$string_afterbr;
echo gettype($ary_replace[0]); // This line outputs 'string'
?
Is this a bug from preg_replace or am I doing wrong somewhere? Any help
would be appreciated.

I understand that RegEx works on strings, but I don't understand why this
function modifies the replacement parameter as it is not pass by-reference.
