I'm making an installation script for one of my PHP software suites and I need to edit a variable in a central config.php file. I've made this code below but I am sure that this is the incorrect way to use REGEX.

		$username = $_POST['un'];
		$password = $_POST['pw'];
		$f = fopen("config.php", "w+");
		$read = fread($f, 3013004);
		$replaced = preg_replace('$config[\'USERNAME\'] = "{1}";', $username, $read);

I've read the regex documentation however it provides little help for PREG_REPLACE in this situation. Can someone either guide me in a direction on how I should properly use this for my situation or attempt to explain what I should do for it?

Thanks,
peyton

you’ve forgotten the delimiter characters for the regex string.
