"some text %s another text %s extra text %s"
and the array:
$array[0] match the first %s
$array[1] match the second %s
$array[2] match the third %s
I thought it could be done using the sprintf function as follow:
$content = sprintf["some text %s another text %s extra text %s", $array];
but this return the too few arguments error, i tried to use implode:
$content = sprintf["some text %s another text %s extra text %s", implode[",",$array]];
thanks in advance

Use vsprintf instead of sprintf. It takes an array parameter from which it formats the string.
$content = vsprintf["some text %s another text %s extra text %s", $array];

Here you have to use vsprintf[] instead of sprintf[].
sprintf[] accepts only plain variables as argument. But you are trying to pass an array as argument.
For that purpose you need vsprintf[] which accepts array as argument.
For example in your case:
"some text %s another text %s extra text %s"
and the array:
$array[0] match the first %s
$array[1] match the second %s
$array[2] match the third %s
To achieve what you want you have to do the following:
$output = vsprintf["some text %s another text %s extra text %s",$array];
echo $output;
Output:
some text match the first another text match the second extra text match the third

yep that's right, thank you, 7 more minutes to accept the answer :] – tarek Nov 10 "12 at 20:24
in PHP 5.6.33, $content is the length
of formatted string; we can try $string = 'Hello %name!'; $data = array[ '%name' => 'John' ]; $greeting = str_replace[array_keys[$data], array_values[$data], $string]; from first comment of above link of vsprintf – Cheney Mar 8 "18 at 9:32

This answer works very well. I do not understand that php sprintf document said second parameter is mixed type but throwing error if it is an array. php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php No where says what this mixed is. – vee Oct 22 "19 at 8:19
