need a part of code plz

ungovernable

hi,

i have a variable called $title that contains a few names separated with "+".

Example: "Bob + Roger + Arnold"

i'd like to replace each element with a link :

<a hef="search.php?query=Bob">Bob</a> + <a hef="search.php?query=Roger">Roger</a> + <a hef="search.php?query=Alfred">Alfred</a>

could anyone please give me a PHP code to do this? thanks 🙂

As far as i know, names cant be added.

bogu

$title = "Bob + Roger + Arnold";
$search = "/(\w+)/";
$replace = "<a href=\"search.php?query=$1\">$1</a>";
echo preg_replace($search,$replace,$title);

They aren't. However, after the replacement is done, the original poster has formatting to separate his links. I would choose the | character, but it's designer choice. 🙂

Also those links aren't going to work regardless because you have

<a hef="...

instead of

<a href="...

I chalked that up to a typo with the addition of a couple copy and pastes. 🙂
