note 39641 added to function.nl2br

Just a couple adjustments to the function below. <?php function nl2br_pre($string, $wrap = 40) { $string = nl2br($string); preg_match_all("/<pre[^>]*?>(.|\n)*?<\/pre>/", $string, $pre1); for ($x = 0; $x < count($pre1[0]); $x++) { $pre2[$x] = preg_replace("/\s*<br[^>]*?>\s*/", "", $pre1[0][$x]); $pre2[$x] = preg_replace("/([^\n]{".$wrap."})(?!<\/pre>)(?!\n)/", "$1\n", $pre2[$x]); $pre1[0][$x] = "/".preg_quote($pre1[0][$x], "/")."/"; } return preg_replace($pre1[0], $pre2, $string); } ?> You might ask, why not just use: <?php $string = str_replace("\n", "<br />", $string); ?> ... and prevent double spacing that way by actually *replacing* the \n with <br />, whereas nl2br() *inserts* a <br />. Well, the answer is, doing it that way makes all the HTML output appear on a single line! Ugly, to say the least. The function above will keep your HTML source output formatted the same way you input it. :) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.nl2br.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+39641 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+39641&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+39641&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
