what, per chance, is the need to convert carriage returns and line feeds?

><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><
> I know about the string.replace() function, [...]
><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><

is this publicly accessible?

what level of browser are you looking to support?

what are you planning on doing to make sure it doesn't throw errors on
browsers that don't support the replace() method?

good luck,
