replacing two words

[RyanSF07]

Hello,

 

This code:

$textlevel= $row['level_text'];
$oldlevel = array("Intermédio", "Intermédio avançado");
$newlevel = array("intermediate", "high_intermediate");
$textlevel = str_replace($oldlevel , $newlevel , $textlevel);

 

spits out "intermediate avançado" instead of "high_intermediate"

 

How do I join "Intermédio" and "avançado" so that "Intermédio avançado" is in fact replaced with high_intermediate instead of only the first work replaced?

 

thank you for your help,

Ryan

In the future you should show us the actual string as well.

Switch the order of the elements in the array.

Hey bud, you can give this a try:

<?php

$textlevel= "Intermédio";
$words = str_word_count($textlevel,0,"éç");

if($words == 2)
{
$textlevel = str_replace("Intermédio avançado","high_intermediate",$textlevel);
}
else
{
$textlevel = str_replace("Intermédio","intermediate",$textlevel);
}

echo $textlevel;

?>

 

Just wrote it works pretty well.

 

EDIT: LOL just do what jessica said.

 

Hope this helps you,

 

Regards,

To prevent this problem most token/merge code systems use a marker to denote the start and end of a token/code. You can use things like __, :, @@, etc.
