getting numbers from a string

[garysenter]

Hello,

 

I have a string that I need to get the numbers out of.  The string has both text, and numbers.  I want to get rid of the letters, and only keep the numbers. Is this possible??

 

Please help.

 

Thank you,

Gary

settype() will do that.

<?php

$str = "dfkjn2424fm9303f3@#$@^%^%&11";
$str = preg_replace("/[^0-9]/", "", $str);
echo $str;

//Output: 24249303311

?>

 

Orio.
