Note Submitter: webmaster at cafe-clope dot net ---- based on previous notes, a generalist function that works with any <tag>...</tag>, and its ^-1. (use it with "li", for example) : <?php function nl2any($string, $tag = 'p', $feed = '') { // making tags $start_tag = "<$tag" . ($feed ? ' '.$feed : '') . '>' ; $end_tag = "</$tag>" ; // exploding string to lines $lines = preg_split('[\n\r]+', trim($string)) ; // making new string $string = '' ; foreach($lines as $line) $string .= "$start_tag$line$end_tag\n" ; return $string ; } function any2nl($string, $tag = 'p') { //exploding preg_match_all("<".$tag."[^>]*>(.*)</".$tag.">Ui", $string, $results) ; // reimploding without tags return implode("\n", array_filter($results[1])) ; } ?> I just had a problem when trying "<$tag[^>]*>(.*)</$tag>Ui" regexp string, I can't figure out why.
