str_replace

Hello,

Replacing the key : #0001# within $data doesn't work!! I want to replace it
with a link!

Any sugestions?

Thanx,
InSeCo

*Example of the problem :*
<?php
$data = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz #0001# abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz<BR>
\n";
$data = $data."abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz<BR>
\n";
$data = $data."abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz #0001#
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz<BR> \n";

$repldata = "<A href=link.html>link</a>";
$replold = "#0001#";
echo "<B>Original Data</B><BR>$data;<HR>";
echo "<B>Data to replace :</B> $replold <HR>";
echo "<B>Replace data with :</B> $repldata <HR>";

It doesn't perform the change on parameter given, instead it returns the
changed string. Surely, it must've done what you wanted using $data as
input, but your code just didn't assign the returned value to $data.

Perhaps it worked a bit better if you stored the result of str_replace()
somewhere?

Just wondering :)

$data = str_replace($replold, $repldata , $data);

Please, read the manual. It has some great examples.
