regex\_replace {#language.modifier.regex.replace}
==============
A regular expression search and replace on a variable. Use the
[`preg_replace()`](&url.php-manual;preg_replace) syntax from the PHP
manual.
> **Note**
>
> Although Smarty supplies this regex convenience modifier, it is
> usually better to apply regular expressions in PHP, either via custom
> functions or modifiers. Regular expressions are considered application
> code and are not part of presentation logic.
