Re: [PHP] preg_replace ^M

[Marek Kilimajer]

Those are \r characters from dos newline (\r\n). Generally they are not 
harmful and many editors can work with them without problems (vim). You 
can use some utility commands to convert to or from dos or unix newlines.

the output file after the replacement has 
^M carachters in in

if the $replacements[] = "test"; has no \n in it 
all is OK

$fp = fopen ("draft.html", "r");
$incont = fread ($fp,filesize("draft.html"));
fclose ($fp);
$patterns[]     = "/\[CONTENT\]/";
$replacements[] = "test\nout";
$content = preg_replace ($patterns,$replacements,$incont);

$fp = fopen ("out.html","w");
fputs ($fp, $content);
fclose($fp);
draft.html looks like:

form method="post"

[CONTENT]

/form

the out put get ugly ^M

form method="post"
^M
SERAVS
 toro^M
^M
/form>^M
