Not sure whether NT has anything to do with it but it works for me :-) If you can't get the following code to work then you might want to check whether it is a known bug (http://bugs.php.net). <? $test_string = '1.2$General/ms1.zip'; $new_string = preg_replace("/\\$/", "%", $test_string); echo "new_string is $new_string"; ?> But as someone has pointed out, you should be using single-quotes to prevent unwanted/unexpected variable expansion: $new_string = preg_replace('/\$/', '%', $test_string); -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * /* All great discoveries are made by mistake. -- Young */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
