colap Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 User can post anything. After a line user can hit enter and can start a new sentence. I wan to replace the newline character ('\n') to html '<br/>' element. I need to output a break in html page. How can i do this with php ? How can i check whether a string contains '\n' or not ? Which function can i use for that ? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/252447-how-can-i-replace-all-n-to-from-a-post/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drongo_III Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Hi Mate you could try this $teststring = "This is a new string \n and i just out a line in"; echo nl2br($teststring); It replaces all new lines with html line breaks Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/252447-how-can-i-replace-all-n-to-from-a-post/#findComment-1294311 Share on other sites More sharing options...
