str_replace

aftermar01

Hi,

I am new to php and am tring to find the best way to replace strings located in the title and meta tags. For instance, I want to add the word "Discount" to the begining of my page title. I tried the code below, but had no luck. Similiar strings tend to work in the body, but not in the meta tags.

$html = str_replace("<title>", "<title>Discount ", $html);

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you

Nate

That should work fine as long as $html does indeed contain <title> and other tags.

Well, the best way to replace it would be to add Discount as a php-value, then echo it directly in between tags.

Like:

<?PHP
$tvalue = "Discount";
?>
<title><?PHP echo $tvalue; ?></title>

Or am I missing something here? 😃

Can I use the echo function and still keep the existing page titles? I only want to add the word "Discount" to the beginning.

Thank you

I realized this tag was not working because the text starts immediately after the title i.e <title>Title begins... This poses a new problem. How can I match a partial string? So just the "<title>" is removed.

$html = str_replace("<title>", "<title>Discount ", $html);

Thank you
