how to remove new lines and returns from php strin

Question

A php variable contains the following string:

<p>text</p>
<p>text2</p>
<ul>
<li>item1</li>
<li>item2</li>
</ul>

I want to remove all the new line characters in this string so the string will look like this:

<p>text</p><p>text2><ul><li>item1</li><li>item2</li></ul>

I've tried the following without success:

str_replace('\n', '', $str);
str_replace('\r', '', $str);
str_replace('\r\n\', '', $str);

Anyone knows how to fix this?

Answer 1

This should be like

str_replace("\n", '', $str);
str_replace("\r", '', $str);
str_replace("\r\n", '', $str);

Answer 2

Replace a string :

$str = str_replace("\n", '', $str);

u using also like, (%n, %t, All Special characters, numbers, char,. etc)

which means any thing u can replace in a string.
