[SOLVED] simple question... removing newline...

[loinsees]

code so far:

form:

<table width="300" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="remove.php">
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td colspan="3"><strong>NewLine Remover </strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td> <textarea name="newlineme" rows="15" cols="40" default=""> </textarea> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
<td><input type="submit" value="Submit"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>

 

processor:

<?php
$string=$_POST['newlineme'];
$string = preg_replace('\n', " ", $string);
$string = preg_replace('\r', " ", $string);
echo $string;
?>

 

What am I missing here? Please help out.

Use double quotes when using \n \r \t etc.

 

$string = preg_replace("\n", " ", $string);

Ahh thanks... turns out I was missing quite a few things

 

Anyways, heres the finished code for remove.php:

<?php
$string = $_POST['newlineme'];
$string = str_replace("\n", "", $string);
$string = str_replace("\r", "", $string);
$string = stripslashes($string);
echo $string;
?>
