[php+regex] remove new lines

liam_d · 08-24-2010, 10:22 AM

Okay people say i have this:

PHP Code:

          $pattern = '#\[list\](.*?)\[/list\]#m';

        

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/programming/673797-php-regex-remove-new-lines.html
        //$replace = ;

        

        $text = preg_replace($pattern, '<ul>$1</ul>', $text);

How would i go about removing any new lines found between the list bbcode tags in the $pattern ?

Is there a way to either remove any new lines directly in that or is there a way to ignore them and grab everything else?

something like /[\n\r]/ as the regex for preg_replace to match new lines or even (to avoid regexes which have a high overhead) something like str_replace("\n\r", " ", $oldstring)

Note that (i think) some os's uses \n\r while others use just \n (windows vs mac vs linux)

Win = \r\n
Mac = \r
Linux = \n
