Try with
preg_replace('/\d(?!(?>\d*)\))/X', '*', $phone)
wich would be a bit more efficient than
preg_replace('/\d(?!\d*\))/X', '*', $phone)

I have been working on a script to parse a CSV file and in the process I clean out a lot of the garbage not needed but I am a bit stumped on one aspect of this file. It's a list of over 3000 contacts and I'm trying to mask a lot of the information with *.So as I loop through this list I am checking the array elements as if I finda phone number (555) 555-1212 (I was searching for the (555)) I want to convert it to (555) ***-****For fields not containing an area code, I wanted any text to be replaced byan * except for the first and last letter in the element.I'm stumped and was hoping that this may be something horribly simple I'moverlooking that someone can point out for me.
