$string = str_replace("\\t",'',$string);

if you want to know how you can remove tabs from a strin in php.

to remove the tabs you simple use the str_replace() function in php

here i wrote a simple php file you can create your own so you can see it in action:

open your text editor like notepad, copy and paste this code and save it as wallpaperama.php then upload to your php site and run it with your browser, then you will see how i removed the tabs. removing tabs is easy. try it.

<?
$string = 'line 1: one tabs:	|-	
line 2: two tabs			|-
line 3: some text			with 3 tabs in between
line 4: line 4 has no tabs';

echo 'Original $string: <br><textarea cols="40" rows="7">'.$string.'</textarea><br>';

$string = str_replace("\\t",'',$string);

echo '<br>$string without tabs: <br><textarea cols="40" rows="7">'.$string.'</textarea>';
?>
