[pmwiki-devel] $12.50 -> .50 var problem

[J. Meijer]

I'm now busy resolving your problem. Before starting there are a few problems with your code upfront:> if (strpos($newpage[text], "(:$ff: ") == true) $newpage['text'] =  preg_replace(>            '/\\(:'.$ff.': (.*?):\\)/s',  "(:$ff: $v:)",  $newpage['text'], 1);1. Do this in anything you are developing:     error_reporting(E_ALL);    # let PHP help you2. strpos returns either false or a number. Don't test for 'true', test for ' !== false ' (note this isn't ' !=false ' )strpos($newpage[text], "(:$ff: ") == true    3. Use quotes as in $newpage['text']  (point 1 would have helped you here). Now getting to the regex part. Seems like you have to preg_quote()/jm > > On 4/9/07,  The Editor  wrote:> The following is causing me huge problems.
