I have come across an issue with my string that I would like to find a
faster way to resolve.
It seems there are new lines and returns at different positions of the
string.
First I exploded on the new line explode(“\n”, $ string)
This gave me a nice array but when I try to implode I get the new lines
again.
There is not a consistent position and there seems to be some hidden returns
in the array as well.
Is there a way, or has someone written a filter that would allow me to
remove all the newlines and returns from the array or string.
Understand I have resolved this issue but I think I have to be going about
this the hard way because it is just too complex .
FYI
$filter = array("\r\n", "\n", "\r");
str_replace($filter,’’,$string) ß this is useless in this situation I have
tried and it does not change the string at all.
You don't want to remove them. You want to replace them with a constant.
$lines = explode(PHP_EOL, str_replace($filter, PHP_EOL, $string));
for example.
try to implement a string builder using array or arrayobject and on
insert; filter / replace your text / characters using regex,
