unnecessary <br /> after signs: '', ""

[AndyPSV]

after '', "" the script does unnecessary <br /> (or rather: "\r\n"); when those signs aren't present, it works fine

how to remove the unnecessary new line marks, after those signs?

 

<?php

$text = 'It feels good to be in the zone and not so good to be out of it -- whether below or above your comfort level. Money -- or lack thereof -- is just one of many ways to get there.

\'\'
aaa
""

bb';

function trimBR($s,$wrap=0,$html=0) {
   if($html <> 0) $s = htmlspecialchars($s);
   $s = trim(nl2br(preg_replace('/(\r\n|\t|\n){2,}/',"\r\n",$s)));
   $s = str_replace('<br />',"\r\n",$s);
   if($wrap <> 0) $s = wordwrap($s,$wrap,"<br />",true);
   return $s;
}

echo nl2br(trimBR($text));
# echo nl2br($text);

?>

nl2br() will replace "\n" as well, not just "\r\n", maybe that's why?

[AndyPSV]

probably yes, because I don't see any other possibility

 

what to do to in order to make the script working as it should with removal of nl2br() & str_replace()?

[AndyPSV]

done, thanks
