Rob, et al -- ...and then Robert Cummings said... % % Actually on second thought... and I don't know why I went with the
*grin* % crowd in the first place... I do the following: % % $foo = "I don't like\nnewlines"; % % $foo = str_replace( "\n", '<br />', $foo ); % % That one work for you? It's more efficient too. Actually, no. I thought about listing all of the things I had tried (and ereg_replace wasn't one of 'em) in my post but didn't want to clutter things up. I've tried str_replace, preg_replace, and now ereg_replace, and have tried working on the function extraction of the data directly as well as the $fin and $fout separation. I always have the newline left behind. I'm a [rusty] perl guy, and so I keep wanting to know what's the magic variable in PHP to set to make it eat entire paragraphs, like $/ or such in perl (there's where the rusty part comes in!). If these functions are just operating on a single line then the newline(s) won't get eaten. % % Cheers, % Rob.
