in what context?

If you are talking about in php or something then

code:
$text = str_replace(":)", "<img src='images/smilies/smile.gif' />", $text);

should work.

If it's in HTML, you can always copy and paste?
Ctrl + c ... Copy
Ctrl + v ... Paste

<?PHP $text = str_replace(":)", "<img src='images/smilies/smile.gif' />", $text); ?>

I think (in the <head></head> section).

works a treat thanks, would i be able to direct the page to a seperate php document like you do a style sheet, or is that not possible??

Put the code into a seperate php file and in your head tag put

code:
<?php include "simlies.php"; ?>
