From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: I've been racking my brain attempting to figure out a way to replace only the first instance of a specified string within a larger string. Obviously - str_replace does this ... but it does it for *all* instances. Other functions will *find* the first instance, but won't act upon it. I noticed, however, that "preg_replace" has a fourth parameter ... the "limit" parameter. How nice would this be for "str_replace" to have that 4th parameter?! It would avoid the need to use a regular expression function. I am open to workarounds and alternatives. Thank you for the consideration. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=11457&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]
