LiamProductions Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Hi, What would str_replaced be used for? please explain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLG Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 str_replace — Replace all occurrences of the search string with the replacement string $string = "lets replace me"; str_replace("replace", "", $string); str_replace(SearchTerm, ReplacementTerm, Subject) If subject is an array, then the search and replace is performed with every entry of subject, and the return value is an array as well. Will produce "lets me" What a fun little example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamProductions Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 So whatever is in the replacement turn gets changed to what is in the replacement term? so because you put "" it took out replace so it says lets me, but if you put: $string = "lets replace me"; str_replace("replace", "kiss", $string); If you put that code, would it say "Lets kiss me" ?

chocopi Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 A good example is if you are saving files and want to replace any of the spaces with underscores <?php $str = "hello world.gif"; $new_str = str_replace(" ","_",$str); echo $str; // should give hello world.gif echo $new_str; // should give hello_world.gif ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

per1os Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 <?php $template = "<html><head><TITLE>%TITLE%</title></head><body>Welcome to <b>%TITLE%</b> Your name is %USER_NAME% we welcome you %USER_NAME%</body></html>"; $replace_array = array("%TITLE%" => "My Homepage", "%USER_NAME%" => "Jack of All Trades"); foreach ($replace_array as $replace => $what) { $template = str_replace($replace,$what,$template); } echo $template; ?> Makes it so you can store templates in databases easy without having to worry about using eval and being exploited etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
