Need to detect all the instances of a sub-string of the form “Índice - n -
” from a string and replace them with a white space.
Also, “n” can be any positive number and there can be 1 or more spaces before and after the string, and in between words.
I think I can use this function:
$myString = preg_replace( '/sÍndices+/', ' ', $myString );
But I am stuck in the regex expression.
For example:
“This is a sentence Índice - 8 - forever
”
would become
“This is a sentence forever
“
“Just do it. Índice - 3 -
”
would become
“Just do it.
“
Please help.

Answer
You could use this regex:
Code:
$arr = [ "This is a sentence Índice - 8 - forever", "Just do it. Índice - 3 -", ]; foreach ($arr as $str) { echo preg_replace('/h*Índice - d+ -h*/', ' ', $str), "n"; }
Output:
This is a sentence forever Just do it.
