getting the text till the first newline

[Anon]

Hi, I wrote a function that cuts a string from the beginning till the first newline.

My question is: is there a faster way to do this using preg_replace?

Thanks,

/**

*/
function strings_until_first_newline($s) {
$pos = strpos($s, "\015");
if ($pos > 0)
$s = substr($s, 0, $pos);

$pos = strpos($s, "\012");
if ($pos > 0) 
	$s = substr($s, 0, $pos);

return $s;

}
