[SOLVED] Help with str_replace - Should be a QUICK FIX

[JSHINER]

Here is my code:

$string = $z['description'];

	$string = wordwrap($string, 225, "|", 1);
	list($string) = explode('|', $string);

	echo'<br>';

	echo str_replace("\n", '<br />', str_replace("\r\n", '<br />', str_replace("\n\n", '', str_replace("\r\n\r\n", '', htmlspecialchars($string)))));

 

Works fine EXCEPT str_replace / htmspecialcharcters are not working. Do I have str_replace in the wrong spot? Should it be done before the wordwrap? Or before I define $z['description'] as the $string varialbe?

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

if all you are doing is changing \n or \r to <br> there is already a built in fuction for this

 

nl2br($string);
