eregi_replace isn't your problem this funciton "RETURNS" the new string.
> function scan_string(&$str) {
> $forbid = array ("coke", "tylenol", "ford");
> $swap = array ("pepsi", "advil", "chevrolet");
> for ($i = 0; $i < count ($forbid); $i++) {
> $NEW_STRING = eregi_replace($forbid[$i],$swap[$i],$str);
> }
> return($NEW_STRING);
> }
