Question

I am trying to replace the content between two words using php. The content between the two words is different so I can’t use tradition str_replace. I want to replace the content between two words for example:

I would like to replace **some string of text** between two words

change to:

I would like to replace between two words

You can see that I removed all the wording between “some” and “text”. Again I cannot use regular str_replace because the text between the two words may differ. For example it may say:

I would like to replace **some words of text** between two words

change to:

I would like to replace between two words

Answer 1

The regex is simple: /some .*? text/

Just replace it with the empty string.
