I can’t found out how to solve the following problem:

 preg_replace("/e[^t]/", "", "testet");

This shall cut out just the ‘e’, but it deletes ‘es’. How can I achieve it that it only deletes the first e (and leaves the second one ‘et’ out)?

Thanks!

    Negative lookaheads:

    preg_replace("/e(?!t)/", "", "testet")
    

    As explained here lookaheads don’t capture characters (consume characters) they only assert if the match would be valid.
