Note Submitter: tbm.at.home.dot.nl ---- Windows uses two characters for definining newlines, namely ASCII 13 (carriage return, "\r") and ASCII 10 (line feed, "\n") aka CRLF. So if you have a string with CRLF's, trim() won't recognize them as being one newline. To solve this you can use str_replace() to replace the CRLF's with with a space or something. <?php // string with bunch of CRLF's $my_string = "Liquid\r\nTension Experiment\r\n\r\n\r\n"; // replace CRLF's with spaces $my_wonderful_string = str_replace("\r\n", " ", $my_string); // would result in "Liquid Tension Experiment " // or just delete the CRLF's (by replacing them with nothing) $my_wonderful_string = str_replace("\r\n", "", $my_string); // would result in "LiquidTension Experiment" ?>
