Re: [PHP] strip_tags and nl2br

Are you sure there are newlines before you run strip_tags?

I would assume so, because everything from the textarea runs together in one line when displayed in the browser until filtered through nl2br(). That would suggest to me that there are indeed \n's that are being converted to <br>'s.

It doesn't touch newlines because they aren't html entities.

That is exactly why I am distressed.
