Question

I’m trying to find a block of text and replace it with a modified block of text and for some reason it’s not working. I can execute the following line in my phpDesigner editor and it works perfectly, but when I try to execute the same command on my linux webserver it doesn’t work.

Can someone help me out with a solution whether it’s via regex or some other method?

    $tmp_code = str_replace('<!--
    {if="$membership.field_files"}
    <li><a href="/Members/Listings.html?id={$listing.id}&action=files"><span>Files</span></a></li>
    {else}
    <li><a href="/Members/Listings.html?id={$listing.id}&action=files"><span>Files</span></a></li>
    {/if}
    -->','{if="$membership.field_files"}
    <li><a href="/Members/Listings.html?id={$listing.id}&action=files"><span>Add/Remove Offers, Products and Files</span></a></li>
    {else}
    <li><a href="/Members/Listings.html?id={$listing.id}&action=files"><span>Add/Remove Offers, Products and Files</span></a></li>
    {/if}',$tmp_code);

The problem is more than likely line endings (i.e. your machine vs *nix).

Your editor should have an option for saving files using a particular line ending. I suggest making it the same as your production environment (i.e. *nix)
