Hi All

I am porting some perl to PHP and have struck a small snag. The perl
script has quite a few substitutions that take place so data can be fed
into a html page.

The script uses the following perl syntax

$html = `cat search_results.html`;
$html =~ s/%Accom/$accom/g;

As I understand perl that should cat the html file into a variable called
$html. It should then perform a global substitution replacing %Accom with
the contents of the variable $accom.

Is such a thing possible in PHP? If so how? I have been doing google
searches for a while and can find no simple explanation of how to perform
this in PHP. The nearest I can find is using a preg_replace but I am
unsure if that will do what I need.

Does anyone know if this can be done?

Regards

Richard Luckhurst
