PHP - 从Textarea中删除换行符

Question

I was wondering what I am missing in my code. I have a large form that is pushing all values to a .csv file. There are instances of textareas and every time I put some text content in and add a line break (hit the enter-key) within the .csv document, any line of text after the first breaks the flow of the values within the .csv, and starts a new line.

I've tried checking taking the value via php and removing any spaces or breaks, but it doesn't seem to be working.

Can anyone tell me what I am missing?

HTML:

<textarea id="fianlCommentsText" name="fianlCommentsText"></textarea>

PHP:

$finalCommentsText = $_POST["finalCommentsText"];
function finalCommentsLineCheck()
    {
        global $finalCommentsText;
        preg_replace( "/|
/", "", $finalCommentsText );
    }
    finalCommentsLineCheck();

Answer 1

The "choice" of or requires parens:

preg_replace( "/(|
)/", "", $finalCommentsText );

Try that?
