The + character is a special regex char and as such the regex you are 
feeding in there makes absolutely no sense.  And to make it even stranger,
you toss in a the case insensitive version of the function.  What does an 
upper case + look like?  Use str_replace() instead.  The error PHP is throwing
at you is absolutely valid.
