Question

i have different websites content stored in a variabel named $content. Now what i would want to do is to search the content for META-tags like this:

<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

And then replace the utf-8 to IS0-8859-1. How do i do that with preg_replace?

Note that every occurence is not like that meta-tag. It could be different depending on which website you fetch.

You don’t need to use preg_replace to do that. Just use str_replace:

$content = str_replace('; charset=utf-8', '; charset=ISO-8859-1', $content);
