    Hi,

    Can someone telle me please why in my case the nl2br operator (and the break operator) just place the "<br />" after the newline, and keep the newline present in the string ?

    Exemple :
    Grenland
    består av fire
    kommuner

    gives me :

    Grenland<br />
    består av fire<br />
    kommuner<br />

    Thanks.
