Home_replace help

[Windowed]

Hi
I am trying a code, but unfortunately I have no success to work it out. Following is the part of my code.

$link = '<a href = 'home.php' class="[home.php]">home</a>';

From the above link in my code I want to replace my home page with my class name "active". This is what I use for it

home_replace('/\[*\]/', 'active', $link);

But it seems that the code does not works at all. Any advice on this. thanks in advance.

Hi
In your code you have written the class name with .php extension. A class is never kept with .php.

$link = '<a href = 'home.php' class="[home.php]">home</a>';

rather it should be something like this

$link = '<a href = 'home.php' class="[home]">home</a>';

Please fix the problem and proceed further.

Hi
As mentioned above you may have corrected the problem. alternatively you can also try this regular expression.

$patten = "/\[.*\]/";

Can use it in your program like this

home_replace($patten, 'active', $link);

Hope this will help you. Any more problem do post back.

Hello
Rather I would prefer not to use the "." unless necessary. I think the last solution would fail if there were two links.
So better you this

$pattern = '/\[[^\]]+\]/';

Hope this may solve your problem.
