I have one textarea field in a registration form where visitor enters keywords. even there is a not next to the field "please enter keywords as comma delimited string", they enter as a list, below each other. I tried to convert the list into comma delimited string with several solutions but non of them works: $keywords = eregi_replace('\n', '.', $keywords); $keywords = eregi_replace('\r', '.', $keywords); $keywords = eregi_replace('\n\r', '.', $keywords); $keywords = eregi_replace('<br>', '.', $keywords); any help here?

1) str_replace is more than capable of doing this in a single statement - a regex is overkill. 2) You need to use double quotes around escape sequences (\n and \r) or they'll be ignored. $replacements = array("\r", "\n", "\n\r", '<br>'); $keywords = str_replace($replacements, '.', $keywords); -Stut -- http://stut.net/
