I have a text field in the database with datatype also as text. It holds comments and stuff. Now when I read this and export in a csv if it finds a new line in that comment such as
This is a comment
This is another line
The csv import show “This is another line” in next line and thus mess up my data.
So far I have tried str_replace(), trim(). Still don’t seem to do anything. I have looked for similar answers in stackoverflow but couldn’t find one that suits my problem
Thanks
What are you searching for in the str_replace function? You should be able to search for “\r” and or “\n” the the given string. Examples are documented in the PHP str_replace documentation. Example links below:
