    Hi;

    I have written some php code.

    This code is making heavy letter replacement.

    Which is the faster character replacement way?

    $txt = str_replace($search,$replace,$txt); or $txt = preg_replace($search , $replace , $txt);

    which one must i use for making my code faster?

    Thanks for the comments

    str_replace() is a lot faster.
