PHP -- remove all non alphabet characters?

[Al Neri]

Is there a way to remove every no numeric character from a string?

 

[troytime]

ereg_replace("[[:alpha:]]", "", $yourvar)

 

[troytime]

wait, do you want to remove numbers? or remove alpha?

if you want to remove all but numbers (and special chars), use the one i just posted

if you want to remove numbers
ereg_replace("[^[:alpha:]]", "", $yourvar)

 

[Al Neri]

i want to remove numbers, symbols, !@#$%^&*()<>?/.,;'":][{}|\-=_+ and all other non keyboard ascii symbols!

k
$yourvar = ereg_replace("[^[:alpha:]]", "", $yourvar);
