I'm trying to replace a regular expression with a line break. Right now I'm trying this which doesn't work:
$string = str_replace(';', '
', $string);
I need to make sure that semi colons are exactly the same as ' ' line breaks, how can I get this done?
Use double quotes, otherwise is not parsed. Documentation
$string = str_replace(';', " ", $string);
Try this :
str_replace :
$string = str_replace(';', "
", $string);
echo $string;
preg_replace :
$string = 'sdasdasd;asdasd;asdasd';
$string1 = preg_replace("/;/","
",$string);
echo nl2br($string1);
