I need to strip line break characters (or whatever the character is that results from users hitting their "enter" key inside a TEXTAREA form input) from a string. These characters will appear anywhere in the string, not just at the end. In perl, the regex would look something like this... $a="a\nb\nc\nd\n\n\n"; $b=$/; $a =~ s/$b//g; # produces "abcd" but i'm a newbie and i don't know how I can translate this to PHP syntax to do the same thing. Any help is appreciated!
