Sorry for bothering (and for my writing errors). There actually is another function in PHP that has the behaviour that I expect: strtr(str, arr) $vReplace['@gill'] = '@doubleyou'; $vReplace['@doubleyou'] = '@bates'; $sSubject = "@gill @doubleyou is not my friend"; $sResult = strtr($sSubject, $vReplace); echo $sResult; // will output "@doubleyou @bates is not my friend" Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-02 14:22:23] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-02 13:04:24] [EMAIL PROTECTED] str_replace when used with with arrays, for every element in the search/replace arrays a simple replace in the source string (rather than using an external string) is performed. This causes an unexpected result like if one of the replace values includes a search value it will be replaced in a subsequent replacing action. If this is a feature rather than a bug (which I doubt) please state it in the documentation. An example: $vSearch[] = '@gill'; $vSearch[] = '@doubleyou'; $vReplace[] = '@doubleyou'; $vReplace[] = '@bates'; $sSubject = "@gill is my friend"; $sResult = str_replace($vSearch, $vReplace, $sSubject); echo $sResult; // will output "@bates is not my friend" instead // of "@doubleyou is not my friend" Best regards, Eugen Fernea IT Manager Panacode Software rue de la Station, 1/1 7090 Braine-Le-Comte Belgium E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: +32 067/48 58 94 Mobile: +32 (0)472 95 15 48 Web: http://www.panacode.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20221&edit=1
