Answer 1

You need to create new strings with the /r stripped off
/** Takes a string, and replaces the replace text with new text.
* @param str String to replace into
* @param pattern Pattern of text to replace.
* @param replace What to replace it with.
* @return str with the replace text replaced with the new text.
protected static String replace(String str,String pattern, String replace) {
int s = 0;
int e = 0;
StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();
while ((e = str.indexOf(pattern, s)) >= 0) {
result.append(str.substring(s, e));
result.append(replace);
s = e+pattern.length();
result.append(str.substring(s));
return result.toString();
}
