I am facing a bit of a quandary, I need to replace a new line with <br />. Now, clearly, replacing all instances of did not work, as the page did not have proper linebreaks. Here is an example of some possible text:
Some text
More text
Now, this is an issue because there is no and I have no way to auto-insert <br />. How can I ensure that this contains proper linebreaks?
This is in PHP. I cannot serve it as plain text.
To replace new line breaks with
just use nl2br
Maybe you want http://php.net/nl2br? Or maybe I have misunderstood...
You will want to use nl2br.
Your text has to have a newline () or carriage return () if the text is on 2 different lines.
nl2br will handle either case.
php has a built in function for that.
nl2br() i believe.
