>From the manual for chr()

Returns a one-character string containing the character specified by ascii.

It replaces one (1) character, not a string

Subject: [PHP] ereg_replace or chr bug?


Ok, what i wanna do is replace the codes in html with ascii equivalents:

$text= ereg_replace('&#([0-9]+);' , chr('\1') , $text);
But somehow it doesnt work, i have no idea why.

When i use
$text= ereg_replace('&#([0-9]+);' , '\1' , $text);
it replaces everything correctly

But
$text= ereg_replace('&#([0-9]+);' , chr('\1') , $text);
just replaces everything with an empty string

using php 3.0.12
