I am trying to delete [] parentheses with whats inside of them from string in php.
Input: Hello [string] world!
Expected output: Hello world!
What I tried is:
ereg_replace("\[[^\]]*\]","",$sres);
Where $sres is the string I am trying to clean up. This should work imo and for some weird reason it does little bit. It actually replaces "[1]" with "", but it does not replace for example "[edit]", nor "[""]" and so on. I even tried to wrap the regex in / / :
ereg_replace("/\[[^\]]*\]/","",$sres);
But this didn't work at all, not even on that "[1]".
