If he needs to get rid of a <br> then strip_tags does that or you could include it in a replace. If he needs to get rid of a carriage return/linefeed then the replace can do that. Since we don't know exactly which needs to be done then a solution like dankasaur's that covers both possibilities will work.

A one line solution would be like

<?php print str_replace(array("\r\n","\r","<br>")," ",$hi->hello); ?>
