Hi,

   I am struggling to figure out how to replace a certain char by another, say,
I want to get rid of newline char from a String object. I tried:

          str2 = str1.replace('\n', '\000');

   The newline char is still in str2; then I tried:

          str2 = str1.replace('\x0a', '\x00');

   the compiler complains '\x0a', '\x00' they are invalid escape character.

   I am not sure whether this is something to do with java char is 16bit or 
not.

   Sorry in advance if this is an answered question.
