This problem is driving me nuts. Let's say I have a string:
This is a &start;pretty bad&end; string that I want to &start;somehow&end; display differently
I want to be able to remove the &start; and &end; parts as well as everything in between so it says:
This is a string that I want to display differently
I tried using preg_replace with a regular expression but it took off too much, ie:
This is a display differently
The question is: how do I remove the stuff just between sets of &start; and &end; pairs and make sure that it doesn't remove anything between any &end; and &start; segments?
Keep in mind, I'm working with hundreds of strings that are very different to each other so I'm looking for a flexible solution that'll work with all of them.
Thanks in advance for any help with this.
Edit: Replaced dollar signs with ampersands. Oops!
