you can probably do what you want with preg_replace_callback:

only the function call will be set up slightly differently; namely you
don't pass the callback reference directly, instead the callback

alternatively (actually this looks like the easier way to do it!) use
preg_replace(), with the 'e' modifier tagged onto the end of the
replacement expression: the 'e' modifier causes the expression to be
evaluated as PHP.
Thank you very much Jochem and John. It works like a charm now, and I

Good day,
exec() isn't very good at capturing output. It will only return the last
line of output, which is designed mostly to capture error conditions.
You would be best off using popen() and attaching a pipe to the output, and
then just read from the pipe. More information can be found

Regular expressions are still quite new to me, and i don't fully understand
them, so please bear with me... thanks!
regex is a different beast... however if the text that you have isa actually as
such, it is
$line = htmlentities(stripslashes($line));
$line = nl2br($line);
$line = eregi_replace(\[(link|url)=(.*)\](.*)\[/(link|url)\],a
href=\\\2\ target=\_blank\\\3/a,$line);
$line = eregi_replace(\[color=(.*)](.*)\[/color\], font
color=\\\1\\\2/font, $line);
$line =

In Perl you can do this:
$foo =~ tr/012/mpf/;
Which is the same as:

From my collection - there are duplicates^W^W^W. Heck, might as well tidy
this up. There aren't duplicates. Thanks to those who have variously

Sorry if I seem dense. Your answer (although probably right on target)
leaves me still confused :-)
The example you gave me:
$string = '.';
print(eregi("^([[:alnum:]]+\.[[:alnum:]]+)", $string) ? 'matched' : 'no

Now with your example (above) the following MATCHED

No problem at all.

$string = '.';
print(eregi("^([[:alnum:]]+\.[[:alnum:]]+)", $string) ?
I don't use ereg(i)? much myself but for a perl compat regex I would:
/^(([0-9a-z](\2*))\.([0-9a-z](\2*)))/i
the \# refer to parenthized matches starting at 1 and counting left parens.
The match array index you will want is $myArray[1].
if you don't mind matching
1a2.1a2 you can use
Maybe I'm wrong on this, but could this regex also be used like this?
if(eregi("^[a-zA-Z0-9]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9]+$", $myArray[x]))
