$string = "
put returns between paragraphs

for linebreak add 2 spaces at end

";

Want to remove all new lines from string.

I've this regex, it can catch all of them, the problem is I don't know with which function should I use it.

/\r\n|\r|\n/

$string should become:

$string = "put returns between paragraphs for linebreak add 2 spaces at end ";
php regex string

Line breaks in text are generally represented as:

\r\n - on a windows computer

\r - on an Apple computer

\n - on Linux

//Removes all 3 types of line breaks

$string = str_replace("\r", "", $string);

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

Many of these solutions didn't work for me. This did the trick though:-

$svgxml = preg_replace("/(*BSR_ANYCRLF)\R/",'',$svgxml);

Here is the reference:- PCRE and New Lines

You can remove new line and multiple white spaces.

$pattern = '~[\r\n\s?]+~';
$name="test1 /
                     test1";
$name = preg_replace( $pattern, "$1 $2",$name);

echo $name;

Very simple

$hello = "
A
B
C
";
str_replace("
", " ", $hello);
// A B C

this below code work all text please use it:

$des = str_replace('\n',' ',$des);
$des = str_replace('\r',' ',$des);

Using a combination of solutions mentioned above, this one line worked for me

 $string = trim(str_replace('\n', '', (str_replace('\r', '', $string))));

It removes '\r' and '\n'.
