public static void main (String[] args) {
try{
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String response;
System.out.println ("What is your favorite programming language?");
response = stdin.readLine();

token
===================================

i would like to replace all content between token to a word "replaced"

ereg_replace("^token(.*)token$", "replaced", $this->content);

however it won't work !! I think my regexp is worng !

anyone can fix this problem?


expected outcome
===================================
replaced
===================================

thx

I think the code is fine. I think the problem is that you are still echoing the content string.
you should be echoing the return value of ereg_replace.

I tried the following script and it works fine.

#!/usr/bin/php

<?php

$content='token
blah blah blah
token';

echo ereg_replace('^token(.*)token$', 'replaced', $content) . "\n";
?>

thx!!
