I have just of question if it is possible to replace hexadecimal values in string: for example in long string with windows 1250 encoding (XX) to 2 bytes value in UTF-8 (XX XX)?
Thank you for answers!

Replacement of hexadecimal values in PHP string
Thank you but I am not shure that this is right or the best solution. I just found http://si.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php but I am not shure how to type pattern and replacement info in hexa values (if it is possible).
<?php
$string = 'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.';
$patterns[0] = '/quick/';
$patterns[1] = '/brown/';
$patterns[2] = '/fox/';
$replacements[2] = 'bear';
$replacements[1] = 'black';
$replacements[0] = 'slow';
echo preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $string);
?>
As in this example I would like to replace just 5 (strange and non visible) characters with their XX XX value in UTF-8 format.
Any other suggestions also welcome

Is it always the same 5 input characters?
Do you know what to transform them to?
Test and change this script (remember str_replace() can take arrays as parameters)
| Code: |
| <?php
$cs = rand(0, 1); if (!$cs) header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1250'); else header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8'); if (!$cs) echo 'windows-1250<br><br>'; else echo 'utf-8<br><br>'; $s = "x\xC5x z\xC4\xB9z"; echo $s, '<br>'; if ($cs) echo str_replace("\xC5", "\xC4\xB9", $s); ?> |
Thank you again hexkid!
Yes I know exactly hexa value of all characters in both format.
If I want to replace this values with string_replace, should I give as third parameter string in hexa format or php will know that he has to search hexa values in normal string (so conversion of string string on the fly)?

Yes it works "on the fly", thank you again hexkid!
