that's what is done by

 <?php
     $a='url?test=testen&&test2=test2en&';
     echo "Rewrote:".ereg_replace("([?&])test=[^&]*&*", "\\1",$a)."\n";

 ?>

could be done with

 <?php
     $a='url?&';
     echo "\nNew: ".ereg_replace("^([^&?]*)[?&]+$", "\\1",$a)."\n";
 ?>

which removes all &s and ?s from the end of the string!
