Preg Replace

[7724]

Morning,

I have a variable with a value assigned to it. Now in that variable there could be the text small, medium or large in it. I've tried getting rid of it like so:

$description = 'Large Flower';
// $description = 'Medium Rose';
// $description = 'Small Ivy';

$description = preg_replace("(Large)", " ", $description);
// Also want to replace the words Medium and Small here

But it outputs nothing any ideas please

Your code works if you actually echo out the result:

<?php
$description = 'Large Flower';
$description = preg_replace("(Large)", " ", $description);
echo $description;
?>

You can use an array of regexps to process all of them:

<?php
$description = 'Large Flower
Medium Ivy
Small Tree';

$search = array(
   '#\bsmall\b\s*#i',
   '#\bmedium\b\s*#i',
   '#\blarge\b\s*#i'
);
$description = preg_replace($search, "", $description);
echo $description;
?>
