Replacing a string segment inside a TEXT field

[SYP}{ER]

I've got a table with about 50 entries of text in it. But, those entries use <br /> instead of \r\n so when I output them they go straight into the right format. However, I'd like to replace all instances of <br /> in my table with "\r\n" and then use nl2br() when I output them.

How would my query look?

Thanks for any help :)

As far as I am aware it is not possible to replace part of a field with a single query.

What you will have to either make the changes manually or write a small script to read in each record, make the change and then update the database with the updated data.

There is a REPLACE() function that should do exactly what you ask for:
