Strip new lines in PHP

I've been working with phrases the past couple of days and the only problem I seem to be facing is stripping new lines in the html before printing it.

Anybody have any idea how to remove every new lines from HTML using PHP?

$string = preg_replace('/\R+/', ' ', $string);

\R matches a generic newline; that is, anything considered a linebreak sequence by Unicode.

https://perldoc.perl.org/perlrebackslash#Misc

\R can be used instead of \r\n.

the pt2ph8 answer didn't work for me until I have changed it a little bit as follows: 

str_replace(array("\\r", "\\n"), '', $string);

You can see the different results in this demo:
