Capturing new line character

    I've been having trouble capturing new line characters before inserting strings into my db.

    the following did not work:

    str_replace("\n", "<br/>", $string);
    htmlentities($string, ENT_QUOTES);
    htmlspecialchars ($string);

    any suggestions?

    Sorry, I got it. Simply use str_replace("\r\n", "<br/>", $str);
