preg_replace problem

[Atomiku]

function convert_text($text){
	global $color1;
		$text = preg_replace('/\[php\](.+)\[\/php\]/siU', '
		<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0>
		  <tr>
			<td><b>Code:</b><br><center>
		<table style="border: #000000 1px dotted" cellspacing="2" width="100%">
		<tr><td><pre>' . highlight_string('$1',true) . '</pre></td></tr>
		</table>
		</center></td>
		  </tr>
		</table>		
	', $text);
	return $text;
}

Pretty self explanatory, Does any one know how I can replace everything in [php ]*[/php ] tags with html and highlight_string?

Thanks in advance, atomiku.

Yup, you'll have to use the /e option to eval the replacement. Give me five minutes and I'll post the solution.

EDIT: Dammit - I want to solve this whole thing on one line but I'm have trouble with escaping quotes in the eval'd code - will go multiline if necessary, but still working on it.

Ok - give this a whirl, as you can see, I've had to add the php tags for highlight_string to work and I've change the tags away from the norm to stop this interpreter messing it up

$pat1 = '%\[PEEHP](.*)\[/PEEHP]%iUse';
	// you have to add the php tags on if they haven't
$sub1 = "highlight_string('<?php ' . stripslashes('\\1') . '?>', 1);";

$str = preg_replace($pat1, $sub1, $str);

echo $str;

It might be easier to use preg_replace_callback; then you don't have to stick all your replacement code in the replacement string.
