We've been using the below code to create imdb links from film names stored in database. Now imdb has made changes and they no longer work. For example if film name is Film Name (2009) the link to imdb gets is

http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q=Film%2520Name

. I need modify the ereg so that it replaces the %2520s in search url with a '+' signs.

<tr><td width="20%" class="datacell">IMDb:</td><td width="70%" class="datacell"><a href="http://us.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q=<?php

if (ereg ("(.*) \(([0-9]{4})\)", $movie[film_name], $regs)) {
   echo "$regs[1]";
} else {
   echo $movie[film_name];
}

?>" target="_blank">IMDb</a></td></tr>

Try

echo str_replace(' ', '+', $regs[1] );
