Hi there,

I am trying to strip some words from a sentence. I tried it with str_replace like described here:
http://www.totallyphp.co.uk/code/find_and_replace_words_in_a_text_string_using_str_replace.htm



Unfortunatelly it does not work the way I want, because if I want to replace the word "in" all passages containing the characters "in" are replaced. For example Singapore.


Does anybody know how to do this on just words?

Thank you for any hint,

Merlin

$variable = 'I like to Sing in Singapore';
$variable = str_replace(' in ',' for ',$variable);
echo $varible;

Results should be:
I like to Sing for Singapore
