[PHP]str_replace replaces all instances of a string

**SimpleBB** · 27-08-09

For my bbcode parser, I'm using str_ireplace

However, this replaces all ']' with another bbcode's markup, no matter what.

For example,

PHP Code:


$message = str_ireplace(array("[quot usr=\"", "\"], "[/quot]"), array("<b>", "</b><i>", "</i>"), $message);
$message = str_ireplace(array("[link href=\"", "\"]", "[/link]"), array("<a href=\"", "\">", "</a>"), $message);

Since the [quote] tag is parsed first, all instances of "]", even if its [link href="bob"].

So is there anyway to solve this?
Or do I have to use preg_replace instead?

Lol, the code's kinda messed up cuz I'm using html tags and stuff, so just bear with it. :D

Whoops, wrong section lol.

$mycode = '<?php echo("hello");?> [b]<html>[/b]';



$stvarno = array ("<", ">", "[b]", "[/b]");



$zamjenjeno = array ("&lt;","&gt;", "<b>", "</b>");



$code = str_replace($stvarno, $zamjenjeno, $mycode);



echo ("$code");



?>
