(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0)

mb_ereg_replace -- Replace regular expression with multibyte support

## Description

string mb_ereg_replace ( string pattern, string replacement, string string [, string option] )

mb_ereg_replace() scans string for matches to pattern, then replaces the matched text with replacement and returns the result string or `FALSE` on error. Multibyte character can be used in pattern.

Matching condition can be set by option parameter. If i is specified for this parameter, the case will be ignored. If x is specified, white space will be ignored. If m is specified, match will be executed in multiline mode and line break will be included in '.'. If p is specified, match will be executed in POSIX mode, line break will be considered as normal character. If e is specified, replacement string will be evaluated as PHP expression.

The internal encoding or the character encoding specified in mb_regex_encoding() will be used as character encoding.
