Function cal in eregi_replace()

Greetings all,

I need to call a function each time php replaces a string with ergei_replace. here is the code:

# Mathes %HZE_*
$RX_E_P = '%HZE_([[:alpha:]/_0-9]*)';
# Mathes %HZI_*
$RX_I_P = '%HZI_([[:alpha:]/_0-9]*)';
# Mathes <HAZEL_DATE[*]>|<HAZEL-DATE[*]>
$RX_D_P = '(<[[:space:]]*HAZEL_DATE[^>]*>)|(<[[:space:]]*HAZEL-DATE[^>]*>)';
$DATE_VAR = 'HZDATE';
reset($StringTemp);
while(list($k,$v)=each($StringTemp))
{
if(eregi($RX_E_P,$v) && $v = str_replace('"','',eregi_replace($RX_E_P, (STRING) h3m_get("QUERY","\\1") ,$v)))
{
echo "$v\n";
#$outTemp[$k] = '"'.h3m_get("QUERY","$v").'"';
}
elseif(!eregi($RX_D_P,$v) || !$outTemp[$k] = eregi_replace($RX_D_P,h3m_get("QUERY","$DATE_VAR"),$v))
{
$outTemp[$k] = $v;
}

I Know that PHP is not calling the function because I have the function set to echo each time it is called and it isn't echoing.
thanks

Richard,

I thank you for your comment. I have already found the proper solution which was to use the preg_replace() with the 'e' modifyer.

I will still award the points as your comments show that you were most definately trying to help.

Thank you again,
