Post subject: | String from DB into a variable | ||
Hey... Long time since Iv posted here... but anyhow. I have a table which looks like this:
Now I want to create a script that takes the variable name from the database and replaces it with its value. Suppose I create a post on my forum and I put {PHP_VER} in my post, I want it to display the phpversion() on my server, how would I go about doing that? Doing a simple str_replace simply displays the text phpversion() which is not what I want... I want it to 'run the function'... Any ideas on how I should do this? Thanks, Amailer |

Is this how BBcodes work? |

BBcode is just a simple regex search and replace. I don't have any examples to throw at you, but you can search on google for regex or pcre and php |
