RE: [PHP] Re: preg_replace("/^\//".. doesnt work?

2002-02-20 Thread scott

that's probably what he meant... but what he
asked for was how to "replace the first '/' in $a"

if you have $a="abc/def", the regex "^/"
will not replace the first "/" in your string,
which was my point :-)

Also note:

"^" matches the beginning of the string, so "^\/"
will only match a "/" at the beginning of the
string (not the first occurence of "/")

   $a = preg_replace("/^\//", "", $a);
   echo $a;
