Can you adapt this ...
<?php
$s_Text = 'Re: A dummy subject.';
foreach(range(1,10) as $i_Test)
{
echo $s_Text = preg_replace_callback
(
'`^Re(\[(\d++)\])?:`',
function($a_Match)
{
if (count($a_Match) == 1)
{
$i_Count = 2;
}
else
{
$i_Count = 1 + $a_Match[2];
}
return "Re[$i_Count]:";
},
$s_Text
), PHP_EOL;
}
Outputs ...
Re[2]: A dummy subject.
Re[3]: A dummy subject.
Re[4]: A dummy subject.
Re[5]: A dummy subject.
Re[6]: A dummy subject.
Re[7]: A dummy subject.
Re[8]: A dummy subject.
Re[9]: A dummy subject.
Re[10]: A dummy subject.
Re[11]: A dummy subject.
