This is a bug that occurs when Euphoria is built using MingW (GCC for Windows). I'm current working on a fix for this and it will probably be released very shortly. If you build Euphoria using Watcom, then this bug does not occur.

The purpose of remove_all is to remove all elements in the second parameter that equal the first parameter. To quote the manual ...

In the example you gave there is no single element in the second parameter that is equal to "?selectlang=ru.' Remember that a string is a sequence of integer elements (characters), so you can see that there is no character that matches the string "?selectlang=ru".

I'm a bit surprised that we don't have a function that does what you want but here is an example function that you can use for now.

include std/console.e 
public function remove_match(object needle, sequence haystack) 
	integer found = 1 
	while found with entry do 
		haystack = remove( haystack, found, found + length(needle) - 1 ) 
	entry 
		found = match( needle, haystack, found ) 
	end while 
	return haystack 
end function 
 
sequence data 
data = "<a href=\"?selectlang=ru\"><img>"  
display(data) 
data = remove_match("?selectlang=ru", data)  
display(data)
