Hi,

I am still searching a function in PHP to execute variable replacement in strings.
Other languages do have this, but for PHP I can only find sprintf() and string replace.

I have

$t = ' - solved - ';
$msg = 'The problem is $t';

I want now:

echo fxx($msg);

print out "The problem is - solved - ".

Please don't tell me about $msg = "The problem is $t"; just think of $msg like a
template read from a file.

/Str.

strtr() ?

You could do something like this:

$template = 'Your name is %given_name% %family_name%';

echo strtr($template, array(
'%given_name%' => 'John',
'%family_name%' => 'Doe',
));
.
