CODE

$html = preg_replace('//ie', '<kbd title="'.str_replace("%", $1, $lang["access_key"]).'">{$1}</kbd>', $html);

I can not get that working for the life of me. I get this error:

QUOTE

Parse error[/b]: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in display.class.php on line 120

$lang['access_key'] is: Keyboard shortcut: Alt+% (Win), Ctrl+% (Apple)
(The % gets replaced with whatever the key is....)

Basically, what I am trying to do is have it so in my templates, someone can put in :

CODE

earch

and that will change to:

CODE

<kbd title="Keyboard shortcut: Alt+S (Win), Ctrl+S (Apple)">S</kbd>earch

Get rid of the 'e' modifier, I believe. (It causes the replacement string to be evaluated as PHP code.)

Or use $1.

CODE

$html = preg_replace('//i', '<kbd title="'.str_replace('%', $1, $lang['access_key']).'">'.$1.'</kbd>', $html);

Still getting the same error.

$html = preg_replace('//ie', '<kbd title="str_replace('%', \$1, $lang['access_key'])">\$1</kbd>', $html);
