Like Terw but with replacing \n

<?php
 $json = str_replace('\n', '', $json);
?>

tags, but line breaks should not be in JSON.

Answer 2

do you get linebreaks like <br /> or newlines like \n? But try to replace them with PHP.

<?php
$string = 'asdfasf<br />asdfasf';
echo str_replace('<br />', '', $strin); // Replace <br /> with '' (nothing)
?>

or check out urlencode

Answer 3

Easy, just try:

<?php
...
function parseline($string){
  $string = str_replace(chr(10), "//n", $string);
  $string = str_replace(chr(13), "//n", $string);
  return $string;
}

echo parseline($string_with_line_breaks);//returns json readable text

I have tested it and it works perfect. No need to add complicated functions.
