Replace all lines except first

[Maxchen]

Hi, I trying do something like that:

$string = 
'<img src="1.gif" />
<img src="2.gif" />
<img src="3.gif" />
<img src="4.gif" />
<img src="5.gif" />';
$result = preg_replace('/(<img(.*)>$)/', '.', $string, -1);
echo $result; 

I must replace all <img src="..." /> except first line, but with no results...

Hello Friend,
Please be clear in what are explaining. What do you really mean by "except first line"?
