Methods to remove specific characters from string

0 votes

I am trying to remove the brackets "[" and "]" from $widget_text in the variable value below and store the result in $widget_id.

$widget_text = '[widget_and-some-text]';
$widget_id = ?;

Should I use preg_replace, str_replace or something else?
