How can I use PHP to open another PHP file, find a line, and replace it with something else??? If it helps, here's the document that needs to be opened...
$phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_alpha.' . $phpEx
Here are the two lines that need to be found...
$select_sidebar = 8;
and
$select_sidebar = 9;
These lines are not right next to each other.
And I need them to be replaced with...
$select_sidebar = {$module_id1};
and
$select_sidebar = {$module_id2};
Please note that I don't want it to say $select_sidebar = $module_id1, I want it to say $select_sidebar = (and then the value of $module_id1).
So, any help is appreciated.

That's like, I can't beat my neighbor in an argument, so instead I kill his dog.

Re: Find and replace in PHP
Nope, works in 4.3 as well. If you were using PHP5 only, you could however use file_put_contents().

Nope, I want it to work with everything phpBB3 works with.
