Simple string replace in php

[cyber-noob]

Hi
I Have created a .html template file. I have even created a title to add in the link to it. This is the same as the title of the page. But I want to do something and replace it so it becomes more user friendly. I can not find any solution for it. I am posting my code below, See if you can help me.

$file_show=str_replace("{title2}",$line['title'],$file_show);

makes {title2} work through the template, but stuff like

$title2=str_replace(" ","-",$title2);

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hello
Sorry bro, I can not follow your code today because I am very busy in my other works. But i have a code related to your problems. So I have posted the code below. Just go through it, see that may help you.

 $title=$getinf['title'];
      $title=strrep('.',' ',$title);
     $title=strrep('?',' ',$title);
     $title=trim ($title); //trims the blank space at the beginning and end of string

$title=strrep(' ','-',$title);
echo "<a href=".$getinf['id'] ."/". $title . ".html" . "><small>Read More</small></a>";

any more queries then do post back.

Hi
I read your code / program and tried to understand what you are trying to do, but unfortunately I did not understand what are you exactly trying to achieve in your program. Firstly the $title2 is undefined. I am not sure what you are trying to do, but I am posting an example see this may help you.

$file_show=strrep("{title2}",$line['title'],$file_show);

$file_show=strrep(" ","-",$file_show);

I think this is what you are trying do. If you have queries then do post back again.

Hi
I have no idea what are you trying to do in your program. I think your full source code would be much better for understanding. Still, here you are trying to create new meta title and you are looking to remove the characters from there. This is what you are doing.

$title2 = preg_replace('/[^a-z^A-Z^]/', ' ', $title2);

If you want to keep numbers then you can try this.

$title2 = preg_replace('/[^a-z^A-Z^0-9^]/', ' ', $title2);

You could possible run that prior to your final output.
