RE: [php-list] problem with ereg_replace

Hi

 

use slash when you want to replace the special chars.

 

$description_brief = ereg_replace ('\*' , "• " , 
$description_brief) ;



 

Thanks,

Subject: [php-list] problem with ereg_replace

 

Hi

I am trying to replace the * char in a string to •
I have tried using ereg_replace and str_replace with 

$description_brief = ereg_replace ('*' , "• " , 
$description_brief) ;

which gives me an error: Warning: ereg_replace()
[function.ereg-replace]: REG_BADRPT 

and when I try str_replace nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Thanks

David
