removing characters from a string

[mdmartiny]

Hello Everyone,

 

I am working on a project I pull the field names from the database. I am trying to remove the underscore (_) when the field name is displayed. Does anyone know how I would do that?

 

Here is the code that I am working with

$i = 0;
    while ($i < mysql_num_fields($fieldnamesquery_result)) {
        $meta = mysql_fetch_field($fieldnamesquery_result, $i);
        if (!$meta) {
            echo "No information available";
        }

        $meta = str_replace("_", " ", $meta);

        $tablecolumn .= "<p>" . $meta->name . ":<input type='text' name='" . $meta->name . "' id='" . $meta->name . "' /></p>";
        $i++;

str_replace works on strings.  When you have an object that includes a string you need to reference the actual string to do the replace:

 

$meta.name = str_replace("_", " ", $meta.name);
