			It's not a matter of "easier to read" for the instances of '\"', but rather "what's present in the HTML". Since double-quotes are, and single-quotes aren't, we need to use '\"' in order to find this text. --[[User:Heeheehee\|Heeheehee]] 23:46, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

	I can't think of an example that would produce what's on my mind, and not even sure if it's possible, but if somehow there would be more replacements available if the first instance of a match was ignored, would this function prefer to do so, or does it indeed go left-to-right?

Created page with 'In reference to the RFI: {{CodeSample| description=For example, with this:| code= <syntaxhighlight> replace_string("abababa","aba","X"); </syntaxhighlight>| moreinfo= You get th…'

New page

In reference to the RFI:

{{CodeSample|
description=For example, with this:|
code=
<syntaxhighlight>
replace_string("abababa","aba","X");
</syntaxhighlight>|
moreinfo=
You get this:
<pre>
Returned: XbX
</pre>}}
