preg_replace( '(<p>|</p>)', '', $row->post_text);


That is taking post_text and removing the paragraph tags, obviously. Reson: the tags are displayed literally as
<p> and </p> when the result is spit back out and displayed in my forum.

How can I have nice paragraphs in the text that's spit back out without having the literal paragraph tags?

I tried

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]
preg_replace( '(<p>|</p>)', '\n', $row->post_text);


but that spits out a literal "\n" between paragraphs. Ack.

I'm getting literalled to death here.

Here's the whole bit
Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]
function bb_quote_message() {

        global $bbdb, $topic;

        $post_id = (int)$_GET['quote'];

        $the_author = $_GET['author'];

        $the_author = str_replace('!~', ' ', $the_author);

        if ($post_id) {

                $row = $bbdb->get_row("SELECT * FROM $bbdb->posts WHERE post_id={$post_id} AND topic_id={$topic->topic_id} AND post_status=0");

                $row->post_text = rtrim(preg_replace( '(<p>|</p>)', '', $row->post_text));

                if ($row) echo ($the_author.' said:<br />'.htmlentities('<blockquote>'.$row->post_text.'</blockquote>', ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8')."\n");

        }

}

Maybe you're looking for nl2br()?
