[PHP] argument variable gets lost in function

[Spunk S. Spunk III]

I'm assigning a variable a value from an associative array.
    $variable = $array["key"]["value"];

Then passing the $variable to a function.
    SomeFunction($variable)

The variable exists (can be printed) until a built-in function (within the
original function) is called.
    echo "$variable"; //prints out fine
    $variable2 = ereg_replace(" ", "_", "$variable");
    echo "$variable"; //prints out NOTHING...

Why is this and how can I get around it?

Thanks,
Spunk
