hey,
I just noticed that this is actually not working very well...
Here is the example:

---------------------
<tr><td>
<!--ec1-->text1<!--ec2-->
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
<!--ec1-->text2<!--ec2-->
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
<!--ec1-->text3<!--ec2-->
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
<!--ec1-->text4<!--ec2-->
</td></tr>
---------------------

the problem is that
ereg_replace("(<!--ec1-->).*(<!--ec2-->)","\\1$repl\\2", $string);
will replace text from first "<!--ec1-->" occurrence (line 2 in example)
and last occurrence (line 12 in example).

I want to replace text between two neighbor tags. In another words to
replace text1 on second line, then text2 on fifth line and so on...

PS: I have added "<tr><td>" just for an example, so that is not a
pattern. It can be various html code.

Thank you in advance
