Problem with strip_quotes

[x3sphere]

Hi, I use strip_quotes on my main site when I run text through the BBcode parser. However, the problem is that strip_quotes is leaving some extra line breaks.

Why it happens is that someone will do a [/QUOTE], press enter 2 times, then enter more text. So when it goes through the parser, the quote is gone, and you have two extra line breaks.

Anyone have a solution to remove these?

EDIT::

ok, figured out how to use preg_replace with regex to remove the line breaks.. got it working

thx anyway all
