Anytime you can have the internals of php handle stuff for you the
better it most likely will be.

[PHP] str_replace: use multiple or array?

2004-07-30 Thread PHP Gen 
Hi,
I need to use a couple of str_replace's in one of my
programs and would like to know which is more resource
friendly:

1) having multiple str_replace one after another

eg:
$text = str_replace("orange", "apple", "$text");
$text = str_replace("black", "white", "$text");
$text = str_replace("girl", "guy", "$text");
$text = str_replace("woman", "man", "$text");
$text = str_replace("plant", "tree", "$text");

2) by using an array

eg:
$bad = array("orange", "black", "girl", "woman",
"plant");
$good = array("apple", "white", "guy", "man", "tree");
$text = str_replace($bad, $good, $text);
