.josh Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Okay so basically what is happening is your negative character class consumes anything that is not a forward slash or a dot, so it matches all the way up to that "/" in the "</embed>" and then it starts backtracking, giving up characters in the match, until it finds the last " it ran into, to satisfy that " you end your pattern with. Since you are replacing the value of width, and since the value is delimited by quotes, you should make your negative character class match for anything that is not a quote: preg_replace( '#width="([^"]+)"#', 'width="100%"', $flv); This will make it stop matching at the next " it finds.
