hi, thanks for the code. i tried. it only worked if the string is simply
the one i wanna convert. but that particular string is in the middle of
a long text, and there are multiple occurance, it won't.
however, i did manage to come up with this code that worked. but i
believe it can be improved on. it will identify all occurance of the
specified pattern and do the necessary replacement throughout the whole
string.
preg_match_all("|\[::(.*)::\]|U", $longTxt, $matchedResult);
for ($idx = 0; $idx < count($matchedResult[1]); $idx++) {
$extract = stripslashes($matchedResult[1][$idx]);
$longTxt = str_replace("[::{$matchedResult[1][$idx]}::]",
"\".$extract.\"", $longTxt);
}
