<?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));
?>
