Hello everyone,

Sorry for bothering you again.
Today I met a problem exactly described by a developer in users' notes
that follow the preg_replace description in the manual:
info at gratisrijden dot nl

if you are using the preg_replace with arrays, the replacements will apply as 
subject for the patterns later in the array. This means replaced values can
be replaced again.

Example:
<?php
$text = 
'We want to replace BOLD with the <boldtag> and OLDTAG with the <newtag>';

$patterns 
= array(
'/BOLD/i', 
'/OLDTAG/i');
$replacements 
= array(
'<boldtag>', 
'<newtag>');

echo preg_replace 
($patterns, $replacements, $text);
?>

Output:
We want to replace <b<newtag>> with the <<b<newtag>>tag> and <newtag> with the 
<newtag>

Look what happend with BOLD. 

Is there any solution to this besides any two-step sophisticated trick
like case changing?
Thanks!
