AFAIK, and from the php manual:
php docs wrote:nl2br -- Inserts HTML line breaks before all newlines in a string
so removing the HTML line breaks it's put in shouldn't affect the newlines.

from php man:
Note: Starting with PHP 4.0.5, nl2br() is now XHTML compliant. All versions before 4.0.5 will return string with '<br>' inserted before newlines instead of '<br />'.

Code: Select all

&lt;?php
str_replace("&lt;br /&gt;","\n",$string);

Then you'll end up with double newlines because nl2br() doesn't replace the newlines it simply puts an HTML linebreak in front of them.
