preg_replace

hello,

what am i doing wrong here? it is not working

$fullpage = preg_replace("#<td class=\"mod\">(.+?)\ </td>#i", "<td class=\"mod\">You are not allowed to view here </td>", $fullpage);

PHP:

thanks

 

You specified the pattern to match against, but you didn't specify what to replace it with.
Look at the doco for preg_replace here.

 

I match against:

<td class=\"mod\"> </td>

PHP:

replace with

<td class=\"mod\">You are not allowed to view here </td>

PHP:

is this not how to do?

 

Sorry I must get my eyes checked

Can you confirm what you want to match? In your last post it seems like you're matching a td tag with class "mod" that contains one whitespace character. In your regex it's matching also a td tag with class "mod" that contains at least one of any character followed by one whitespace character.

 

I am trying to match

<td class=\"mod\"> </td>

PHP:

Any td tag with mod class (there is a space just before the closing td tag)

and replace it with

<td class=\"mod\">You are not allowed to view here</td>

PHP:

 

In that case just remove the part with the brackets in your regex: (.+?)

BTW, in any case, question mark after '.+' is redundant.
