[RESOLVED] String replacement

[thoff]

Hi everyone.

For a given string, I need to find out if it contains a mailadress, and if it does I need to replace it with soemthing else.

I tryed using preg_match and preg_replace but can't get it to work.

Does anyone have a clue?

This example should give you some idea

<?php
$mail ='This is my email address: [e-mail]  ';
$search = "/(\\S+@\\S+\\.\\w+)/";
$replace = 'EMAIL';

$text = preg_replace($search, $replace, $mail);
echo $text;
?>
