PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description:
I've been racking my brain attempting to figure out a way to replace only the first instance of a specified string within a larger string.
Obviously - str_replace does this ... but it does it for *all* instances. Other functions will *find* the first instance, but won't act upon it.
I noticed, however, that "preg_replace" has a fourth parameter ... the "limit" parameter.
How nice would this be for "str_replace" to have that 4th parameter?! It would avoid the need to use a regular expression function.
I am open to workarounds and alternatives. Thank you for the consideration.
