Simple reg help please
i want to match the last "," in "a,b,c,d" and replace it with " and "
Without using a regexp, you could do:
<code>
$string = 'a,b,c,d';
$letters = explode(',', $string);
$last_letter = array_pop($letters);
$final_string = implode(',', $letters) . ' and ' . $last_letter;
</code>
Not very efficient - but should work...

Nah found a solution ^^
My regular expression is as follows: ereg_replace
(",([[:alnum:][:space:]]*)$"," and \\1",$string)
Thanks for the help =)
Note: that expression does not work with string who have other signs
than "," in it e.g. "!" or "?".
