nl2br

Hi,

I am using the nl2br() function to add line breaks (rn) to text before storing in a database. Problem is that on my edit page I'm getting these characters echoed. Is there a way of stripping these out - ie. reversing nl2br?

Thanks

Chris

Why are you storing them?

Don't store them... call the text from the database and add the breaks when you display it. There will be less data to store and you'll be able to do more with the text in the long run.

<?
$str=str_replace("<br />","\n",$str);
?>


but kbluhm is quite right.
