Remember, U is a tacked on feature, but ? has always been there, it's your friend. I used pipes to remove the necessity of escaping the forward slash.

[PHP] preg_replace pain!
I was hoping someone could help me with this regular expression... $pattern = "/\[b\](.*)\[\/b\]/Ui"; $message = preg_replace($pattern, "B\\1/B", $message); The above works for: [b]bold text[/b] But does not work for: [b]bold text w/ newline[/b] Can anyone help me sort this little issue out? Many thanks!!

RE: [PHP] preg_replace pain!
maybe : $pattern = "/\[b\]([.\n]*)\[\/b\]/Ui";. have you tried it succesfully? P.S: I am not sure that \n in preg is a newline, you could also try this: $pattern = "/\[b\]([.".chr(10).chr(13)."]*)\[\/b\]/Ui";. one of these ...
