mad request!

[Bald Bouncer]

I need to change the ' character to ` in the first post in threads....I told you it was mad! ;)

[Bald Bouncer]

$message = preg_replace("/([\?\!]+)/e", "substr('\\1',0,1)", $message);

I know if this is posted in Newthread it will remove multiples !!! ??? from your message so maybe someone can alter this to change the characters

Mad but easy. :)

$message=str_replace('\'','`',$message);

1 more thing is it possible to stop empty lines in the post, I tried changing <br><br> to .... but I guess it wont work with HTML :confused:

[Admin]

Argh, for some reason the escape character was stripped. (you need to escape the escape character :()

$message=str_replace('\\'','`',$message);

It worked fine as below mate

$message=str_replace("'","`",$message);


that stops them putting the character in the post, but I also need to stop empty line breaks appearing if you have an idea...
