Thanks for the reply mate! Only problem im having is my array goes a little something like this.

 

array('HOME' => 'home', 'TITLE' => 'title');

 

Heres what I have

 

		foreach($parts as $part => $value):
	echo str_replace('{' . $part . '}', $value, $file) . '<br /><br />';
endforeach;

 

But if there is 2 items in an array the loop is ran twice :S.

 

Many thanks

Isn't that what a loop i supposed to do? Why are you thinking that foreach would be a bad solution?

 

However, based upon the code posted I am assuming you are wanting to do multiple string replacements. If so, then you can use arrays as the search and replacement values. The problem you have with the current setup is that your actual search values are enclosed in brackets. So, you would have to modify the values of your search values.

 

$search = array_keys($parts);
foreach($search as $key=>$value)
{
    $search[$key] = "{".$value."}";
}

echo str_replace($search, $parts, $file) . '<br /><br />';
