Re: string functions and manipulations in php hi,
Here we discussing about the replace function. In string functions of PHP there is one function called "str_replace()", which used to replace any single or set of charcter to anyother format. Syntax str_replace(find,replace,string,count)
find = Required. Specifies the value to find
replace = Required. Specifies the value to replace the value in find
string = Required. Specifies the string to be searched
count = Optional. A variable that counts the number of replacements
Example <?php
echo str_replace("world","Peter","Hello world!");
?>
The output of the code above will be: Hello Peter!
For case sensitive scenario, we can use str_ireplace() function. Syntax str_ireplace(find,replace,string,count)
find = Required. Specifies the value to find
replace = Required. Specifies the value to replace the value in find
string = Required. Specifies the string to be searched
count = Optional. A variable that counts the number of replacements <?php
echo str_ireplace("WORLD","Peter","Hello world!");
?>
The output of the code above will be: Hello Peter!
Thanks
