[RESOLVED] What am I missing?

[zzz]

I get a date in the following format: 02-08-09 and I need to turn it into 020809.

So I tried

$var = '02-08-09';
$var = preg_replace('-', '', $var);

but i keep getting:

Warning: preg_replace(): No ending delimiter '-' found in...

What am I missing?

Hi ,

Just the delimiters ...

$var = preg_replace('/-/', '', $var);

Don't really need regex for this, though ...

$var = str_replace('-', '', $var);

P.

[zzz]

dah! Of course....
