text only

[YodaOfCamarilla]

hi, is there a function that returns a string with only text characters and strips it of all numeric and characters such as £$%^&*?

Ive looked through the php manual but I either blindly missed it or its not in 🙁

<?
$string = "abc123def#@!";

$string = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z]/", "", $string);

echo $string;
?> 

i haven't tested that, but i think it should work.

::edited, yes now this works ::
