Removing newline characters

[Amit Varia]

How would you remove newline characters from a string?

I tried

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

But that doesn't work.

you also need to remove \r from the string.
(on windows, newline is \r\n, on *nix it's just \n, but a windows client
will send \r\n, and on older macs I think newline was just \r but I can't
remember for sure.)

as was posted there is also the \r on some files or \r\n, try this:

// for end of line (or begining)
$string = trim($string);

// from everywhere
$string = str_replace("\n", "", $string);
$string = str_replace("\r", "", $string);
