Removing the carriage return in a Find & Replace?

bobafifi has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I've got an HTML page I'm trying to do a find/replace on. For example

perl -i -pe 's/<TD><FONT FACE=arial SIZE=-1>/widget/g' * test.html
[download]

but there's a carriage return in the HTML between

<TD>
<FONT FACE=arial...
[download]

Can somebody please tell me how to code for the carriage return?
Thanks!
Bob
