Regular Expression insert at beginning of line

[HighOrbit]

I am having a brain lock.. so I hope somebody can help me here.

I have a string that contains alphanumeric data (and spaces) and new lines.

$string="data\ndata\ndata\n"

I want to insert "MAN**" at the beginning of every line so that the string will be changed to:

$string="MANdata\nMANdata\nMan**data\n"

I've tired a few different combinations with ereg_replace but I can't get it right.

Can anybody help me? Thanx.

Try This

Not sure if the /n you actually want in the string or not. the output is just what you have in you string. If you want them to be new lines remove the /n from "MAN**/n\n"

$string="data\ndata\ndata\n" ;

$string = str_replace("data\n", "MAN**data/n\n", $string);

print $string;
