<?php
// Convert HTML linebreak tags to paragraph tags.
function br2p($str) {
$str =
preg_replace("/<br\s?\/?>(\r)?(\n)?<br\s?\/?>/Ui","</p>$1$2<p>",$str);
return $str;
}
$str = "This is an example of the use of this function.<br /><br />It
should replace only double <br> tags.";
echo br2p($str)."\n";
$str =<<<HTML
This is another example.
If I place any multiple of two <br>, <br />, <BR>, <BR />,
<Br>, <Br />, <bR>, or even <bR />
tags side-by-side, they should be replaced with <p></p>. In
addition, if there is a newline
character in *NIX, Windows, or old-style Mac/Amiga, this will
be carried over in the translation.
This will ensure preservation of all but the <br /> tags.
HTML;
echo br2p(nl2br($str));
?>
