From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Windows PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: String position of preg_match_all
Hello. I am not sure if a lot of other people would want this, but a humungous amount of programmers I know need this. There should be a feature in php, a function like preg_mall_strpos or another parameter in preg_match_all. What it should do is in each set of matches in preg_match_all, it should also give the string position of the match. This means $matches would look like this: Array(0=>Array(0=>Array(0=> blah 1=> nother blah) 1=>Array(0=> 30 1=>52))); The reason we wouldn't just use preg_replace, is because a lot of us need to replace a mass amount of matches according to the previous or future match. Without this you would need a very complicated function --- Well not too complicated, but if it is a common problem you should make the parameter. Thanks in advance!
