    Hello All,
    I am having one script that finds words from the paragraph and replace it with the same word alongwith the hyperlink with it using preg_replace function. This script works perfectly on my testing server but as soon as I moved it to live server the script doesn't work at all. So, is there any modifications required in php.ini or any extension that is needed to load in order to run this preg_replace function? Please help me. I got stuck at this point. Thanks in advance.

    Since no external library is required to install it, have you check your version of PHP on the server? certain function of preg_replace only work since 5.1.0. like count parameter.
