[RESOLVED] simple regex problem

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Oct 13.2009

Hi, i am trying to replace the following code with a new line. So far to no success. I am pretty sure my regex is correct.

I have tried:

[code=php]
$textMatches = str_replace(‘<span id=”lnBr”> </span>’, ‘n’, $textMatches);
[/code]

and

[code=php]$textMatches = preg_replace(‘/<spansid=”lnBr”>s</span>/’, ‘n’, $textMatches);[/code]

Any ideas why this script cannot find:

[code=html]<span id=”lnBr”> </span>[/code]

Thanks in Advance

@MindzaiOct 13.2009 — The regex matches your example for me. Note that n in single quotes is a literal backslash-n, whilst n in double quotes is the newline character.

Success!
