note 85416 added to function.preg-replace

There seems to be some unexpected behavior when using the /m modifier when the line terminators are win32 or mac format. If you have a string like below, and try to replace dots, the regex won't replace correctly: <?php $s = "Testing, testing.\r\n" . "Another testing line.\r\n" . "Testing almost done."; echo preg_replace('/\.$/m', '.@', $s); // only last . replaced ?> The /m modifier doesn't seem to work properly when CRLFs or CRs are used. Make sure to convert line endings to LFs (*nix format) in your input string. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 96.251.61.40 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85416 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85416 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85416 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
