strtolower not working inside preg_replace

[ibinod]

Can anyone help me pls i can't get this working

 

$str = '<p>The reality TV’s most hated man has some harsh words for Oscar-winning actress <a href="http://www.mysite.com/name/Angelina_Jolie">Angelina Jolie</a>';

echo preg_replace('/http:\/\/www.mysite.com\/name\/(.*?)\//i',strtolower('\\1'),$str);

 

how can i modify this so the strtolower will work and only the last part string will be lowercased like Angelina_Jolie to angelina_jolie

 

Thanx.

why not just strtolower it in the first place, before the preg_replace? But anyways, if you insist, you need to use the x modifier and wrap the strtolower in quotes.

if i use strtolower before preg_replace everything inside $str will be lowercased and i don't want that i just want the url last word to be lowercased

Just like Crayon Violent said....

 

 

Except I think it might need to be the e modifier.

It'll be like this:

 

echo preg_replace('/http:\/\/www.mysite.com\/name\/(.*?)\//ie',"strtolower('\\1')",$str);

 

The e modifier tells it that the thing in the second argument should be evaluated as PHP code.

Hi, thanks a lot it works when i use the e modifier but it add extra \ at the end how can i remove this

Perhaps \\1 should be \1.  Other than that, not sure.
