Question

how do i explode the square brackets and then replace them with some text?

i tried the following code, but it seems only recognize the first two:

Regex code:

/(\[[\w\s]+\])/g

anyone can suggest what needs to be changed in the regex code?

$data = "[Foo Bar],[Suganthan],['Test1',1,5.09,12.50, 7.41]";

but it only finds: [Foo Bar],[Suganthan]

preg_replace('/(\[[\w\s]+\])/', 'replaced', $data);

Answer 1

You can use this regex to capture all the square bracket contents:

(\[[^]]+\])

RegEx Demo

Code:

$data = preg_replace('/\[[^]]+\]/', 'replaced', $data);

If you only want to find content from inside the [ and ] then use lookarounds as in this regex:

(?<=\[)[^]]+(?=\])

And use code as:

$data = preg_replace('/(?<=\[)[^]]+(?=\])/', 'replaced', $data);
