Hi guys,
I have a sample string "[hp-ex][log]peter[hall o]" that I need to process. I
need to remove the [] and separate the sections with a space. If there are
more then one [] part the first part should be bold (add <b></b> around it).
I have a solution that is working very well, but am thinking that I can do
this with preg_replace directly, what do you think? The final output is
always found in $thestr. Can all this be done with one preg_replace?
<?php
echo "<pre>";
$str = "[hp-ex][log]peter[hall o]";
preg_match_all("/\[(.+?)\]/", $str, $matches);
print_r($matches);
$m1 = $matches[0];
$m2 = $matches[1];
if(count($m1)>1) {
$m2[0] = "<b>$m2[0]</b>";
$thestr = implode(" ", $m2);
} elseif(count($m1)==1) {
$thestr = $m2[0];
} else $thestr = "";
echo $thestr;
echo "</pre>";
?>
