Bug description: str_replace misfunction?
Description:
------------
It's not exactly a bug but I believe str_replace has a problem that can be
solved.
In the first sample below, after replacing "ONE" with "TWO WORDS", process
follows with next array item and it changes "TWO" with "MANY LETTERS".
After the first successful replacement, shouldn't it stop replacing? IMHO
it will be the right function flow.
Thanks,
David Gimeno i Ayuso
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$match=array("ONE","TWO","THREE");
$replace=array("TWO WORDS","MANY LETTERS","OTHER IDEAS");
$sample="ONE SAMPLE";
echo "first=",str_replace($match,$replace,$sample);
$match=array("TWO","ONE","THREE");
$replace=array("MANY LETTERS","TWO WORDS","OTHER IDEAS");
$sample="ONE SAMPLE";
echo "second=",str_replace($match,$replace,$sample);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
first=TWO WORDS SAMPLE
second=TWO WORDS SAMPLE
Actual result:
--------------
first=MANY LETTERS WORDS SAMPLE
second=TWO WORDS SAMPLE
