bbcode

[deathadder]

i am looking to add bbcode to my toplist service for description, i have a working code but it wont allow for example

 

echo $descr; instead os displaying the description it just displays the text descr

 

here is my code

 

<?php
function BBCode ($string) {
$search = array(
     '#\[b\](.*?)\[/b\]#',
     '#\[i\](.*?)\[/i\]#',
     '#\[u\](.*?)\[/u\]#',
     '#\[img\](.*?)\[/img\]#',
     '#\[url=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/url\]#',
     '#\[code\](.*?)\[/code\]#'
);
$replace = array(
     '<b>\\1</b>',
     '<i>\\1</i>',
     '<u>\\1</u>',
     '<img src="\\1">',
     '<a href="\\1">\\2</a>',
     '<code>\\1</code>'
);
return preg_replace($search.'si', $replace, $string);
}
?>
<?php
echo BBCode('Here is some [b]Bold![/b] and so on!');
?>

 

this works perfectly but as soon as i put something along the lines of this

 

echo BBCode('$descr'); it wont display anything but the text $descr

[trq]

Variables don't need quotes around them and in fact will not interpolate when within single quotes.

 

echo BBCode($descr);

It doesn't work because you are trying to concatenate an array which turns it into a string. You need to remove the ".'si'" from preg_replace() and place it after each pattern.

i cant figure out how and were, if i should add any /,. or anything, could you possibley do this for me?

$search.'si' needs to become $search, and you need to add si at the end of each pattern in the $search array, IE: after the "#" at the end.
