an example from the PHP manuals:
$text="this is my text string\r\n";
$text=str_replace("\r\n","<br>",$text);
or
$text=str_replace("\r\n","<br>",$_POST['myvariable']);
where:
"\r" = CR
"\n" = LF

str_replace([old_string],[new_string],[text string])
where old_string and new_string can be an array of text.
