 I need a simple function that takes a string and formats
  with a generic mask. Like this example above:
 
 $string1 = 12345678
 $string2 = 11062003
 
 echo format_string (#.###.###-#, $string1);  // -- Returns 1.234.567-8
 echo format_string (##/##/, $string1);  // -- Returns 11/06/2003
 
 Does anybody here have an idea to how to do this?


 Here is a function that does what you want, with
 a test stand.  HTH!


 ?php

 function format_string($mask, $contents, $ch = '#') {

 $c = 0;
 $str = ;

 for($m = 0; $m  strlen($mask); $m++)
 if ($mask[$m] == $ch) {
 $str .= $contents[$c];
 $c++;
 }
 else
 $str .= $mask[$m];

 return($str);
 }

 html
 body
 form action=mask.php method=get
 Mask: input type=text name=mask value=?php echo
 $_GET['mask']; ?/br/
 Content: input type=text name=cont value=?php echo
 $_GET['cont']; ?/br/
 Maskchar: input type=text name=ch value=?php echo
 $_GET['ch']; ?/br/
 input type=submit
 /form


 bResult:/b ?php echo format_string($_GET['mask'], $_GET['cont'],
 $_GET['ch']); ?br/
 /body
 /html
