Re: strip out too many newlines

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



thanx for the reply, but 1 problem. there is not only \n there are \r in the POST too (carriage returns) so a string can look like this:

$string = '[quote=xx]\r\nfoo\r\n[/quote]\r\nmore text\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n';

and your regexp will only catch if there is just \n
any solution for \r\n in combination too?

ty.

echo preg_replace ('!

                     \[quote
                     (?:=[^\]]*)?
                     \]
                    )                # Capture the [quote=xxx] part
\n* # Eliminate any extra newlines here (.+) # Get contents \n* # Eliminate any extra newlines here (\[/quote\]) # Capture this part \n* # Eliminate any extra newlines here !x', "\$1\$2\$3\n\n", $string);

HTH,
