seifer Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Hey guys I am a regex noob and I'm sure this is probably really simple but I've been trying for about an hour to do this I want to match 01Jan12:40 23Jun18:10 15Dec11:33 They are a date proceeded with a 24hr time. I don't need ANY error catching or anything, it's coming from a reliable source (bank statement) and I just need this for some internal processing (ie. fix St George bank's stupid format to work in MYOB) I'm just trying to REMOVE the date entirely. Here is what I have and I can't figure out why it won't work. $content = preg_replace('/[0-9][0-9](Jan|Feb|Mar|Apr|May|Jun|Jul|Aug|Sept|Oct|Nov|Dec)[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]/', '', $content); Please someone help me Kane Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/175073-solved-please-help-trying-to-match-something-like-10jun0122/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
