[SOLVED] str_replace

[JChilds]

Thanks to Crayon Violent I have a shiny new script.

 

<?php

$input = $_POST["input"];
$notebook = "James XXXXXXX test";



preg_match_all("/id_[1-9]?\d+/",$input,$info);

$info = array_reverse($info[0]);


$x = 0;
while ($info[$x]) {
$info[$x] = ltrim($info[$x],'id_');



$x++;
}



foreach($info as $i) {


echo $i. "<br />"; }



?>

 

I am just wondering where in here I would put 'str_replace('XXXXXXX',$info,$notebook);'

I assume this will replace the XXXXXX with the first line of $info

Though i am not clear about your problem but the line you are supposing put would work except $info is an array so instead of array you just need to put a single element of that array. AFAIK the replacing value $info should be a string.

Sorry, I should have made myself more clear.

 

I have an array ($array)

 

I have a text file ($notebook)

 

$notebook contains "James XXXXXXX test"

 

$array contains a 7 digit number (eg 1234567)

 

I want to replace the X's with the numbers.

Anyone?

Umm I don't know you are trying to achieve this:

$notebook 	= 'James XXXXXXX test';
$replace 	= '1234567';
$find 		= 'XXXXXXX';
echo str_replace($find, $replace, $notebook);

$replace 	= '1234567';
$find 		= 'XXXXXXX';
echo str_replace($find, $replace, $notebook);

 

All I get as output is 'Array' when ;

$notebok = 
' test1 XXXXXXX 
  test2 XXXXXXX ';

$replace = $array;
$find = 'XXXXXXX';

echo str_replace($find, $replace, $notebook);

Can you please say here that what exactly the variable $array holding so that it could make more closer to say the solution? I don't think that the problem is too much complicated.
