RE: [PHP] Re: preg_replace(/^\//.. doesnt work?
Also note: ^ matches the beginning of the string, so ^\/ will only match a / at the beginning of the string (not the first occurence of /) -Original Message- From: Philip Hallstrom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Subject: [PHP] Re: preg_replace(/^\//.. doesnt work? $a = /test/; $a = preg_replace(/^\//, , $a); echo $a; On Wed, 20 Feb 2002, John Ericson wrote: I want preg_replace to replace the first '/' in $a with '' so that the echo function echoes test/, but instead it echoes /test/ as if preg_replace didnt worked?

RE: [PHP] Re: preg_replace(/^\//.. doesnt work?
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 :-) -Original Message- From: James Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Subject: Re: [PHP] Re: preg_replace(/^\//.. doesnt work?
