I have a string as $test = 'aa,bb,cc,dd,ee' and other string as $match='cc'. I want the result as $result='aa,bb,dd,ee'.
I am not able to get te result as desired as not sure which PHP function can give the desired output.
Also if I have a string as $test = 'aa,bb,cc,dd,ee' and other string as $match='cc'. I want the result as $match=''. i.e if $match is found in $test then $match value can be skipped
Any help will be really appreciated.
You can try with:
$test = 'aa,bb,cc,dd,ee';
$match = 'cc';
$output = trim(str_replace(',,', ',', str_replace($match, '', $test), ','));
or:
$testArr = explode(',', $test);
if(($key = array_search($match, $testArr)) !== false) {
unset($testArr[$key]);
}
$output = implode(',', $testArr);
$match = ''; inside the if condition. (on the second solution, I mean)Try with preg_replace
$test = 'aa,bb,cc,dd,ee';
$match ='cc';
echo $new = preg_replace('/'.$match.',|,'.$match.'$/', '', $test);
aa,bb,dd,ee
"/$match,|,$match$"? $test = 'aa,bb,cc,dd,ee';
$match='cc';
echo trim(str_replace(',,', ',' , str_replace($match,'',$test)),',');
$match='aa' will give you ,bb,cc,dd,ee' - look at my answer - there is trim method involved.Try this:
$test = 'aa,bb,cc,dd,ee';
$match = 'cc';
$temp = explode(',', $test);
unset($temp[ array_search($match, $temp) ] );
$result = implode(',', $temp);
echo $result;
