Brent, et al -- ..and then Brent Baisley said... % % Why not just use the nl2br() function? It's a lot easier that using any Because it doesn't do what I need. From the Fine Manual: nl2br -- Inserts HTML line breaks before all newlines in a string string nl2br ( string string) Returns string with '<br />' inserted before all newlines. I don't want to simply add a <br>; I want to *replace* the newline (and return, as we found out in a subthread). % replace function you build yourself. Except that it doesn't work :-) Thanks & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) davidtg@justpickone.org * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) davidtgwork@justpickone.org http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
