I have a DB system which i've just rewritten for a travel website. Previously it used <BR>'s for linebreaks but i've made it much more efficient. My problem it, there are 10+ travel guides which us <BR>'s and I want to remove them on over 100 pages (In a MySQL DB).

Using PHP, how can I write a simple script to go through all the entries for a column (Called articles) and remove all instances of <br> or <BR> ??? It would take far too long to do it page by page :-(

I know this is a PHP list, but why use PHP?


UPDATE table SET column = REPLACE(column,'<BR>','');
UPDATE table SET column = REPLACE(column,'<br>','');
