title: How do you remove numbers from a string in PHP?
body: <pre><code>$text = preg_replace('/[^\\/-a-z\s]/i', '', $text);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have this expression, which removes everything except dashes, forward slashes and whitespace. However, it always leaves the numbers no matter what I move around. 
  Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>$text = "FLAMBOYANT#_45/ADJ" = result = FLAMBOYANT45/ADJ</p>
