    This line $text = preg_replace('/[\s\r\n\t]/', ' ', $text);
    replaces special characters with white spaces. How do I remove special characters without replacing them with white spaces.

    Instead of
    preg_replace('/[\s\r\n\t]/', ' ', $text);

    use:
    preg_replace('/[\s\r\n\t]/', '', $text);

    I think that is what you meant....
