Subject: Regular Expressions

I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out the format of regular
expressions. Particularly I am using the PHP feature preg_replace().
What I need to do is replace "[img:??????????]" with "<img src=". The
problem is the "??????????", which stands for 10 characters that I do
not know and simply need to discard.
Whenever I add anything beyond the following:
preg_replace("/\[img:/","<img src='",$post_text);
I get an "Unknown Modifier" error for anything that I do. The above will
replae the obvious "[img:" but those 10 random characters got me stuck.
Whenever I try to look it up online I constantly get sites that have
just copied the PHP Manual that doesn't even explain how to use the
commands very well. I would be very grateful If anyone can help or point
me in the right direction. As a last note, preg_replace is supposed to
follow the same rules as Perl.
