[code]
<?php
$period = '.';
$string = "1:19,19";
$string = ereg_replace('.', $period, $string);
echo $string;  /* Output: '1:19.19' */
?>

[/code]

Use the [url=http://www.php.net/str_replace]str_replace()[/url] function:
[code]<?php
$str = '1:19,19';
$str = str_replace(',','.',$str);
echo $str;
?>[/code]

You can use [url=http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php]preg_replace[/url] to replace all occurences of "," with "."
Here is a little example:
[code=php]<?php
//Your lap time, get it from DB or whatever
$time = '0:51,96 lap time';

//Remplace "," (comma) with "." (dot)
//Multiple commas are trimmed down to one dot
$time = preg_replace ('#,+#', '.', $time);

echo $time;
?>[/code]

I hope this is what you're looking for.

BTW, the above will replace multiple commas with just one dot.
[b]0:51,,,,,,,,,,,,96 lap time[/b] will result [b]0:51.96 lap time[/b]

As [b]kenrbnsn[/b] suggest, use [i]str_replace()[/i] instead. There´s no need for regular expressions.
