MB_EREGI_REPLACE(3)							 1						       MB_EREGI_REPLACE(3)

mb_eregi_replace - Replace regular expression with multibyte support ignoring case

SYNOPSIS

       string mb_eregi_replace (string	$pattern, string  $replace, string  $string, [string  $option = "msri"])

DESCRIPTION

	Scans $string for matches to $pattern, then replaces the matched text with $replacement.

PARAMETERS

	      o $pattern
		- The regular expression pattern. Multibyte characters may be used. The case will be ignored.

	      o $replace
		- The replacement text.

	      o $string
		- The searched string.

	      o $option
		-$option has the same meaning as in mb_ereg_replace(3).

RETURN VALUES

	The resultant string or FALSE on error.

NOTES

       Note

	      The  internal  encoding  or the character encoding specified by mb_regex_encoding(3) will be used as the character encoding for this
	      function.

       Warning

	      Never use the e modifier when working on untrusted input. No automatic escaping will happen (as  known  from  preg_replace(3)).  Not
	      taking care of this will most likely create remote code execution vulnerabilities in your application.
