Well, the problem here is that when you concatenate $id containing 70 on to '$1', you effectively end up with '$170' -- which the manual page at http://php.net/preg-replace makes clear is ambiguous, but is likely to be treated as $17 followed by a zero, rather than $1 followed by 70. Since $17 doesn't exist (as you don't have that many capturing subpatterns in your pattern!), it is taken to be the null string -- leaving just the left over 0 as the result of the replacement. QED. The workaround for this is also given on the page referenced above, which is to make your replacement be '${1}'.$id. Incidentally, I don't really see the need for the $1, or the equivalent parentheses in the pattern -- since a fixed string is involved, why not just use it directly in both places? Like this: preg_replace('#screen/temp/(.+?)_1(.+?\.jpg)#', 'screen/'.$id, $file); which completely sidesteps the problem. Cheers!
