if I had ereg_replace($motif,$change,$string)
what would be the value of $change if I want $motif to be replaced by its own value??

I'm not sure what you mean, but if I got you right, the $change would be "\1", but that doesn't make any sense to me ;-) What are you trying to do?

I have a file like this :
<table cellpadding=0 border=0 cellspacing=0><tr><td>
<table width=500 >
<tr>
<td class=std colspan=2>
<?php echo C_GARDERUNOEIL ?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class=boldRed align=center colspan=2>
<?php echo $error ?>
<br><br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="45%" class=smallBold align=right>
<?php echo C_JOUEUR ?> 1.
</td>
<td align=left>
<input type="text" name="Player1" value="<?php echo $Player1 ?>" maxlength=12 size=15>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class=smallBold align=right>
<?php echo C_JOUEUR ?> 2.
</td>
<td align=left>
<input type="text" name="Player2" value="<?php echo $Player2 ?>" maxlength=12 size=15>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>
I want to have an other file which will be the same except the lines
<?php echo C_JOUEUR ?> and <?php echo C_GARDERUNOEIL ?> which must become
blablabla1 and blablabla2 (because C_JOUEUR has the value blablabla1 and C_GARDERUNOEIL the value blablabla2 )
what do you think about this script:
<?php
$fichier="file_to_change.php";
$fcontents = file($fichier);
$fichier="new_file.php";
$fpN=fopen($fichier,"w");
for($i=0;$i<count($fcontents);$i++) {
ereg_replace("<\?php echo C_[A-Z][^{a-z]*\?>","\1",} $fcontents[$i]);
fputs($fpN, $fcontents[$i]);
}
?>

define("C_JOUEUR", "blablabla1");
define("C_GARDERUNOEIL","blablabla2");
$error = "There was a catastrophic error!";

$fcontents =
"<?php echo C_GARDERUNOEIL ?>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class=boldRed align=center colspan=2>
<?php echo $error ?>
<br><br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width=\"45%\" class=smallBold align=right>
<?php echo C_JOUEUR ?> 1.
";

$fcontents = preg_replace("/(C_[A-Z]+)/e", "'\"' . \1 . '\"'", $fcontents);

echo "<pre>";
echo htmlspecialchars($fcontents);

This is a better way to read the file in.

$fichier="file_to_change.php";
$fp = fopen($fichier,"r");
$fcontents = fread($fp, filesize($fichier));
fclose($fp);

In fact I want all the string
<?php echo C_GARDERUNOEIL?> to be replace by
blablabla1 and not only C_GARDERUNOEIL

instead of putting the defines couldn't I include a file containing all the defines??
