Php text in one line

How to Break up a Text Into Separate Lines In PHP?

Problem:

You have a long string that consists of some lines (see the following code). Each line consists of information of each employee and lines are separated by new line characters. Now, we would like to separate each employee information in different variable so that we can use it according to our needs.

Use explode() function in php.

Output:
———————————————————————————————
Name: Keith B. Covey Designation: Project Co-ordinator Height: 187 centimeters.
———————————————————————————————
Name: John C. Evans Designation: Cheif Operating Officer Height: 179 centimeters.
———————————————————————————————
Name: Ernest K. Peterson Designation: Senior Marketing Executive Height: 180 centimeters.
———————————————————————————————
Name: Daniel M. Beal Designation: Human Resource Manager Height: 182 centimeters.

Line 1 to 6	Variable $employees holds a long text which consists of information of all employees.
Line 7	The explode function splits the content of variable $employees by PHP_EOL which is a PHP constant that indicates end of a line. In the $employees variable, after each employee information, the line ends and new employee information starts in the nest line. After splitting, the explode function returns an array. We define that array as $employee_arr. Each element of the array $employee_arr stores information of each employee.
Line 8 to 11	The foreach loop prints each employee information as separate line.

explode() function at a glance

explode() function splits up a string into an array.

explode(separator, string, limit)

• If the limit is a positive number, the returned array will contain a maximum of limit element with the last element containing the rest of string.
• If the limit is zero, it is equivalent to 1.
• If the limit is negative, it removes the last limit elements and returns the array.

Example 1: How to retrieve minute from 10:30:12

Line 3	>The explode function splitting up the variable $time by “:” generating 10, 30, and 12. Then, it stored those values in $time_arr
Line 4	As minute is in the second element(10:30:12), so, it is stored in the second element of the $time_arr array. That is $time_arr[1].
Line 5	Printing the minute

Example 2: Use of optional parameter

"; echo $language; > echo " 
-------------"; $languages_arr = explode(" ", $languages, 0); foreach ($languages_arr as $language)< echo "
"; echo $language; > echo " 
-------------"; $languages_arr = explode(" ", $languages, -2); foreach ($languages_arr as $language)< echo "
"; echo $language; > ?>

Output:
PHP
MySQL
JavaScript
jQuery CSS HTML
————-

PHP

Line 4	Assigning 4 in the third optional parameter, the explode function returns an array with 4 elements, the fourth element(jQuery) contains the remaining part(CSS HTML) of the string
Line 12	In the third parameter 0 is equivalent to 1. Assigning 0, the explode function returns an array with one element (PHP) and add the remaining part of the string( MySQL JavaScript jQuery CSS HTML) with this.
Line 20	Assigning -2 in the third optional parameter, the explode function returns an array with all the elements except the last 2 elements (CSS HTML).

Attempting to concatenate a text without any line breaks

To achieve my desired output of a bunkhouse with a front bedroom, kitchen island, loft, outdoor kitchen, and 4 slide-outs, I need help finding a solution. One option is to use nl2br for regular line breaks, while for a UL list, another solution involves realizing that the current solution may not be working as expected due to inserting html line break elements instead of newline characters.

«m trying to echo a text into one line with no line breaks

In an attempt to eliminate line breaks, I attempted to use nl2br and remove all instances of /n or /r. My desired output is a single line of text without any breaks.

Attempting to condense my text into a single line.

«I»m trying to write my text

Apart from the requirement of replacing nl2br with a space instead of an empty string, your code is functional. It is worth noting that you can enhance the efficiency of preg_replace by utilising \ \ \ \ \ \R\ \ \ \ , which can recognise any unicode newline sequence.

$mytext = "I'm trying to write my text\r in one line"; echo preg_replace('/\R/',' ', $mytext); echo PHP_EOL; echo str_replace(array("\r\n", "\r","\n"), " ", $mytext); 

I'm trying to write my text in one line I'm trying to write my text in one line 

To ensure that it stays on a single line in the HTML, replace it with non-breaking spaces, such as replace spaces .

$mytext = str_replace(' ', ' ', $mytext); 

Below is a demonstration of implementing   using JavaScript:

let str = "I'm trying to write my text in one line I'm trying to write my text in one line I'm trying to write my text in one line"; $('#d1').html(str); str = str.replace(/\s/g, ' '); $('#d2').html(str);

Simply using preg_replace is sufficient. In case you only want to substitute newlines, you can attempt the following method:

$mytext = 'I"m trying to write my text in one line'; echo preg_replace('/\n/', ' ', $mytext); // prints I"m trying to write my text in one line 

In a multi-line string, the line break will be recognized as a newline character even if you don’t explicitly include it. Hence, to identify it in your regex, you can use the code .

The cause for your current solution not functioning as desired is that it includes HTML line break elements in the string instead of newline characters, as mentioned in the documentation available at https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.nl2br.php. Upon executing your solution, the printed output shows that the newline characters are getting eliminated while the HTML elements added by nl2br remain unaffected.

Kindly make sure to add the faulty output you are encountering to your post in the future, along with the code.

Preserve line break in string inside array

My goal is to display the string that was received by the API.

but when I print it using this

The following is the way it is printed on a single line.

This RV features a front bedroom in the bunkhouse, a kitchen island, a loft, and an outdoor kitchen. It also has four slide-outs to provide ample space.

• Bunkhouse
• Front Bedroom
• Kitchen Island
• Loft
• Outdoor Kitchen
• 4 Slide-Outs

Can you provide assistance on obtaining the desired output?

Use nl2br for regular line breaks

To solve the problem, implement the php explode function and use a loop (any type of loop) to iterate over each value. It would be beneficial if you could provide the entire code. Assuming that the received data contains
tags and numerous whitespaces, I will proceed with the following assumptions: 1) The tag used was
. 2) Try the code below.

The code may become complicated if I presume the presence of excessive white spaces within the string.

PHP doesn’t show line break in textarea value in echo, The text contain break line \n that you should convert it to br in html. – Mohammad. Sep 23, 2018 at 8:38 · Attach html tags to newlines. nl2br —

PHP line break between content and date

My objective is to split the title and date into two separate lines as they are currently appearing on a single line.

PHP novice here needs help!

To avoid using the nl2br() function, simply include a line break.

To avoid mixing PHP and HTML, it would be best to separate the dynamic content from the HTML layout. You can achieve this by using the following approach while jumping in and out of PHP and HTML.

Once you have generated the output of your two functions, you can customize the appearance of the HTML elements to match your desired layout. The provided code will simply display the output of both functions on distinct lines.

$message_with_breaks = nl2br($_POST['message']);

I don’t understand, where is the textarea that you mentioned in your earlier post ?

Change 75 to whatever width you want.

The wordwrap function breaks your content down with PHP_EOL which is a constant that is defined to match the proper end of line charachter for your operating system.

Then uses nl2br to convert them to
‘s including any …
