Replace deprecated preg_replace /e with preg_replace_callback [duplicate]

You can use an anonymous function to pass the matches to your function:

$result = preg_replace_callback(
    "/\{([<>])([a-zA-Z0-9_]*)(\?{0,1})([a-zA-Z0-9_]*)\}(.*)\{\\1\/\\2\}/isU",
    function($m) { return CallFunction($m[1], $m[2], $m[3], $m[4], $m[5]); },
    $result
);

Apart from being faster, this will also properly handle double quotes in your string. Your current code using /e would convert a double quote " into \".
