Question

In my application I am displaying text from database in a textview. The text contains ‘\r\n’. So I replaced ‘\r\n’ with empty i.e with ‘ ‘.

My code:

String myString = listItem.gettextdata().replace("\r\n", " "); 

But still the text is displaying with \r\n….where I went wrong? Please help me regarding this….

Thanks in advance

Is this a case where you have to escape the backslash character, i.e.

String myString = listItem.gettextdata().replace("\\\\r\\\\n", " ");
