replace inbetween

[Anon]

okay.. let's say for example I have

[image]http://wwww.yourdomain.com/image.jpg[/image]

and i want it to become

<img src="http://www.yourdomain.com/image.jpg">

how would I do that?
i'd really appreciate some help on this.. thanks

You still should account for upper and lowercase, but here you go...

$string = "[image]http://wwww.yourdomain.com/image.jpg[/image]"

$newstring = str_replace("[image]", "<IMG SRC=\"", $string);
$newstring = str_replace("[/image]", "\"", $newstring);

echo $newstring;

And of course you should actually end this line with a semicolon...

$string = "[image]http://wwww.yourdomain.com/image.jpg[/image]";

Unless you like errors.

DOH!

what about for a URL??

[link]http://www.yourdomain.com[/link]

and I want

<a href="http://www.yourdomain.com">http://www.yourdomain.com</a>

Almost identical technology, just a little more complex...

//////////////////////////////////

$string = "[link]http://wwww.yourdomain.com[/link]";

$stripped_string = str_replace("[link]", "", $string);
$stripped_string = str_replace("[/link]", "", $stripped_string);

$newstring = str_replace("[link]", "<A HREF=\"", $string);
$newstring = str_replace("[/link]", "/" TARGET=/"_blank/">", $newstring);

echo "$newstring$stripped_string</A>";

//////////////////////////////////

It's quick and easy but it should work. You can take out the TARGET="_blank" if you don't want the link to open in a new window.

Have fun.
