Hello,

I have been stuck with this error for ages now well since my host updated the php anyways i have been getting this error.

Deprecated:  Function eregi_replace() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\index.php on line 7

Deprecated:  Function eregi_replace() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\index.php on line 8

I was wondering if you could help me. this is the code.

PHP Code:

$q = stripslashes( $q );
$q = eregi_replace( "\"", " ", $q );
$q = eregi_replace( "\\'", " ", $q );
$q = trim( $q );
$ddl = new ddl( );
$le = new linker( );
$ddl->open( );
$ddl->get( $q, $types );
if ( $_POST['q'] )
{
    $searchtitle = $_POST['q'];
    $Fix = array( "<", ">", "#", "{", "}", "//" );
    $searchtitle = str_replace( $Fix, "", $searchtitle );
    $insertSQL = "insert into search (title) values ('{$searchtitle}')";
    mysql_query( $insertSQL );
} 


Thanks in advanced Memory

the ereg family of functions is deprecated in PHP 5.3 and will be removed completely in PHP6. Use the perl compatible regular expression functions instead:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php

could you help me as i have no idea on what to do.

You can use a simpler string replace function instead:

$q = str_replace( '"', " ", $q );
$q = str_replace( "'", " ", $q );

Now im getting this

Notice:  Undefined variable: q in C:\wamp\www\index.php on line 7

also i was told to use preg_replace

so i done this

PHP Code:

$q = stripslashes( $q );
$q = preg_replace( "\"", " ", $q );
$q = preg_replace( "\\'", " ", $q );
$q = trim( $q );
$ddl = new ddl( );
$le = new linker( );
$ddl->open( );
$ddl->get( $q, $types );
if ( $_POST['q'] )
{
    $searchtitle = $_POST['q'];
    $Fix = array( "<", ">", "#", "{", "}", "//" );
    $searchtitle = str_replace( $Fix, "", $searchtitle );
    $insertSQL = "insert into search (title) values ('{$searchtitle}')";
    mysql_query( $insertSQL );
} 


and i gives me this

Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: No ending delimiter '"' found in C:\wamp\www\index.php on line 7

Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Delimiter must not be alphanumeric or backslash in C:\wamp\www\index.php on line 8

is variable "$types" defined?
