Finding text and replace it??

[Naits]

How can i find text in an variable an replace it with some other text like:

$text ="Hello " //and replace with
<img src=&quot;myserver/smilies/smile.gif&quot;>

you need to use regular expressions.
something like this:

$text ="Hello :)"; //and replace :) with
$text = ereg_replace (&quot;:)&quot;, &quot; <img src=\&quot;myserver/smilies/smile.gif\&quot;>&quot;, $text);

to read more about it go to:

stakadush, why regular expressions? The following should work:

$text = str_replace(&quot;:)&quot;, &quot;<img src='myserver/smilies/smile.gif'>&quot;, &quot;Hello :)&quot;);

No? Should cut down on processing that way too.
