From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: linux PHP version: 4.0.2 PHP Bug Type: Strings related Bug description: strtr behaves differently than unix tr $str = "abcdefghij"; $str = strtr($str, "abcdef", "XYZ"); results in "XYZdefghij" where as in standard unix: echo "abcdefghij" | tr 'abcdef' 'XYZ' would output "XYZZZZghij" because the last character is repeated automatically. Some versions will return "XYZXYZghij" because they reuse the second string, but I'm not if that's the "correct" behaviour, or if the fisrt one is... for what I'm trying to accomplish it doesn't matter though. An example of why this is a problem... $obj_nom = "The Foo-Object"; $file_nom = strtr($obj_nom, " -", ""); // or ..., ''); One would expect this to assign "TheFooObject" to $file_nom... but instead no translation is performed. This would also be the same as: tr -d ' -' which is logically equivalent to: tr ' -' '' There does not appear to be a native php function to do the same thing, infact the editors of the user coments have a couple times told people to use strtr or one of the regexp replacement libraries to accomplish this... not knowing that none of them seem to do so. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=9963&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
