Notepad++ regular expression replace

Question

I need to replace get_option('any_letter_number') with $options_css['any_letter_number'] In Notepad++, I can match what I need with get_option\\('.*?'\\) but replacing it with $options_css\\['.*?'\\] doesn't work.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

In a regex replacement, you use $1 to refer to a captured subpattern.

get_option\('(.*?'\)
// replace with:
$options_css['$1']
