[SOLVED] preg_replace() - replace all letters apart from numbers ',' and '.' ?

[king.oslo]

Hey everyone,

 

I am looking to use preg_replace() twice. Can you please tell me how to:

 

- replace all characters in a $sting that are not numbers ',' and '.' with ''.

- replace all ',' in $string with '.'

 

Thanks!

$string = preg_replace('~[^0-9,.]~','',$string);
$string = str_replace(',','.',$string);

What good will the second one do?

[.josh]

$string = "abc123,456.78";
$string = preg_replace('~[^0-9,.]~','',$string); // new value: 123,456.78
$string = str_replace(',','.',$string); // new value: 123.456.78
