One of my replacement scripts is not working, here is my php code:

 

  $_POST['message'] = preg_replace('/\[font=\"(.+?)\"\](.+?)\[\/font\]/',
   " <font face=\"$1\">$2</font>", $_POST['message']);

  $_POST['message'] = preg_replace('/\[color=\"(.+?)\"\](.+?)\[\/color\]/',
   " <font color=\"$1\">$2</font>", $_POST['message']);

 

When I feed it this:

 

[font="Courier"][color="Yellow"]test[/color][/font]

 

It shows the string as is, and does not evaluate my replacement.  Is there something wrong with my pattern?  All of my other ones have worked like links, images, and b, i, u, but these two above don't work.  I tried it both WITH escaping the " and one WITHOUT escaping the " and still it doesn't process it.  I know the script is going through these lines as I tried putting an echo between them, and the echo is shown.

 

Please tell me what is wrong.
