You could replace if by ASCII code (^M is actually a representation of ASCII 013, the CR character, thanks to http://www.mindspring.com/~jc1/serial/Resources/ASCII.html for the ASCII lookup table.).
This should fix it (untested) <? $chrnumber = 13; //this is the ascii code for ^M $nicestring = str_replace(chr($chrnumber),"(removed M was here)",$badstring); echo($nicestring); ?> where $nicestring is the output, $chrnumber contains the ascii code for ^M, and the input (original) string is $badstring.
