[Resolved] Regular Expressions...

[The Hobo]

I'm trying to run this code:

$msg = preg_replace('/\[\*\](.*)/siU', '<li>\\1</li>', $msg);

And for some reason, it's replacing this:

[*]text

With

<li></li>text

??

[phpman]

works for me, bu tafter looking at the source I see it does what you got.

<li></li>text

let me look deeper.

[phpman]

take the U off the end of the reg. exp.

[The Hobo]

That fixes, that, but now, when I have:

[*]text[*]text[*]text

It does something like:

<li>text[*]text[*]text</li>

[The Hobo]

It seems to work fine if I use an end tag [/*]:

$msg = preg_replace('/\[\*\](.*)\[\/\*\]/isU', '<li>\\1</li>', $msg);
