Php review string, update and echo updated version – PHP Versions

I am looking for a way to review the contents of a PHP string, replace a key phrase if included and then echo the updated string with the replacement in place.

The below looks at the content of the $character['text'] string and removes PhraseToRemove from it – but I cant manage to echo the updated version of $character['text']

Can anyone help me out?

<?php
if (strpos($character['text'],'(PhraseToRemove)') !== false) {
    $url = str_replace('(PhraseToRemove)', '', $url);  
}
?>

    I think you this works for you

    <?php
if (strpos($character['text'],'(PhraseToRemove)') == true) {
    $url = str_replace('(PhraseToRemove)', '', $character['text']);
    echo $url;  
}
?>

    I change !== false to == true
    And $url = str_replace('(PhraseToRemove)', '', $url); to $url = str_replace('(PhraseToRemove)', '', $character['text']);

    There’s no need to check if PhraseToRemove is in text. If PhraseToRemove is in text – it will be removed, otherwise – text will not be changed:

    echo str_replace('(PhraseToRemove)', '', $character['text']);
// or
$character['text'] = str_replace('(PhraseToRemove)', '', $character['text']);
