how to remove numbers from a string php by web hosting

lets say you have a string in a form and you want to delete all the numbers from the value of that string. well, today, i will show you..
you can use this function
CODE:

<?php
	# FUNCTION BY WWW.WEBUNE.COM
	function remove_numbers($string) {
  		$vowels = array("1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "0", " ");
  		$string = str_replace($vowels, '', $string);
  		return $string;
  	}
	$string='This string will have all numbers removed - 213 555 3930';
	echo remove_numbers($string);
?>

why not use regular expression?
$string = preg_replace('/[^a-z]/i', '', $string);

will do exactly the same thing and match faster too!

i used this code to check whether or not a telephone number was valid. take the number, remove all numbers from it, if strlen($number) > 0, then they obviously entered a bogus number. pretty handy. and rather funny that the numbers are "vowels"
