What is the error in this replace code

[vbzoom_com]

$article="[coluor=yelow]hi[/coluor]";
$article = eregi_replace("[coluor=([^{[]*)]","<font} color=\"\1\">", $article);

I want output:
<font coluor=yellow>hi[/colour]

Hi,

why do you want the output [FONT=courier new]<font coluor=yellow>hi[/colour][/FONT] and not [FONT=courier new]<font color=yellow>hi</font>[/FONT]?
Normally the right code should be:

$article = "[coluor=yelow]hi[/coluor]";
$article = preg_replace("#\[coluor\=([^\[]*)](.*)\[\/coluor\]#Ui", "<font color=\"\\1\">\\2</font>", $article);
