ID: 21121 Comment by: sebastian.haller@freesurf.ch Reported By: sebastian.haller@freesurf.ch Status: Open Bug Type: Website problem Operating System: Win98 PHP Version: 4.3.0RC3 New Comment: Here is where the problem occurs: http://www.php.net/source.php?url=/include/layout.inc /* this 'fixing' code will go away eventually. */ $fixes = array('<br>','<p>','</p>'); reset($fixes); while (list(,$f)=each($fixes)) { $text=str_replace(htmlspecialchars($f), $f, $text); $text=str_replace(htmlspecialchars(strtoupper($f)), $f, $text); } Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-29 09:25:57] hugo@gewis.nl Grmbl. I counted on these tags also being expanded - they weren't. Try &lt;br&gt; Hugo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-29 09:25:00] hugo@gewis.nl Try writing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt; - I guess the form-input isn't changed, which means this shows up as literal text in HTML - in which that particular string has meaning and is interpreted by most browsers. Hugo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-20 17:14:01] sebastian.haller@freesurf.ch I can't write < br > (without spaces) in notes. It's always replaces by a 'new line'. See for example http://www.php.net/manual/de/function.nl2br.php (trevor at verite dot com / php at fendforyourself dot com) or http://www.php.net/manual/de/function.htmlspecialchars.php (the last comment 20 dec 2002, note in end) PS: <br \> seems to work properly ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21121&edit=1
