more than one ereg_replace for a string?

[JimD]

How can I do that?
When I try to have 2 ereg_replace for a single string, the first one shows up (works) but the second one doesn't work.
Oh and yea, those 2 ereg_replace do different things (both lines don't do the exact same thing).

Hi,

can you post the code. That would make it easier to find a solution 🙂

Depending on what you want to replace you could do that with just one ereg_replace.

this:

$new_post = ereg_replace("(([^\.<>[:space:]]+\.)|([[:alpha:]]+://))+". "[^\.<>[:space:]]+\.[^<>[:space:]]+", "<a href=\"http://\\0\" target=\"_blank\">\\0</a>", $row['Post']);
$new_post = ereg_replace("http://([[:alpha:]]+://)","\\1",$row['Post']);

and this:

$new_post = ereg_replace(":smilie:","<img src=http://smilieurl.com/image.gif>", $row['Post']);

Only one of them works. Whichever's the last line of the code works. The other one doesn't.
