Okey I got two questions.
Number one. I really suck at regex, it just can't get into my head. Any ideas how to think or learn, any good tutorials? (I've searched and i find them , for being tutorials, too advanced.)
Number two:
Lets say i got those 3 strings:
$string = "his";
$str1 = "hi";
$str2 = "s";
So what I want to do is a regex that looks for hi and replaces it. But! if there is "s" in the string it wont be replaced. Like this.
preg_replace('/'.$str1.'^['.$str2.']/',"replace it with this",$string);
It's not working! (ofcourse not, regex isn't my thing!)
As I said, I don't get this with regex. I want to find str1 and if str2 isn't in the string it wont be replaced. Anyone?
$str = 'his';
$s1 = 'hi';
$s2 = 's';
$result = preg_replace('~' . preg_quote($s1) . '(?!' . preg_quote($s2) . ')~', 'replace with this', $str);
// ~hi(?!s)~
// this regex means:
// "hi" string followed by anything but "s"
var_dump($result);
Live examples:
I think you want to make multiple filters, like: s
, m
etc or more..
$s = array('s', 'm');
$result = preg_replace('~hi(?!'. join('|', $s) .')~', 'replace with this', 'him');
print $result; // him
// and
$result = preg_replace('~hi(?!'. join('|', $s) .')~', 'replace with this', 'hiz');
print $result; // replace with thisz
