How do i convert /n to linebrake in post's ? - sorta fixed, but not as wanted

[Vaupell]

Im using a costum made field,,
and using the vb editor to allow some user content to be added..

and in that process a thread is also made,

But all line breaks are displayed in the post as \n
any ideas why ?

and i tryed to str_replace them all with <br /> but ofcourse that
only works if admin submits due to html limitations for users..

im getting the submitted content like this

PHP Code:

$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', array(
        'message'       => TYPE_STR,
));

$message= convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode($vbulletin->GPC['message']);
$bodytext = $vbulletin->db->escape_string($message); 


and then i use the $bodytext as content of the thread..

help

Try the nl2br() php function on it.

input test

line
 
break 
 
test

Output in thread

 line\n \nbreak \n \ntest

working on the php currently is like

PHP Code:

    if($vbulletin->GPC['wysiwyg']) {
  $bodytext = convert_wysiwyg_html_to_bbcode($vbulletin->GPC['message']);
    } else {
       $bodytext = $vbulletin->GPC['message'];
    }
 $bodytext = $db->escape_string($bodytext);
 
// skipping to thread creation
 
// various attemts
// $bodytext = str_replace('\n', '<br />', $bodytext); 
// $bodytext = str_replace('\n', ' ', $bodytext); 
// $bodytext = nl2br($bodytext);
$bodytext = nl2br($bodytext, false);
 
// render thread content
 
$templater = vB_Template::create('nytevent_new_thread');
$templater->register('message', $bodytext);
$pagetext .= $templater->render();
 
$threaddm->setr('pagetext', $pagetext);
// from here its all in vbulletin domain.. 


didnt work..
EDIT / P.S the str replace with <br /> didnt work cause it just showed the damn html code
inside the threads, and trying to figure out if i can make a linebreak BBcode if i can get
that working i can str_replace that to the line break bbcode

Well not excaktly great but its working..

BBcode with replacement -- <div >{param}<br /></div>

and then str_rep in php --
$bodytext = str_replace('\n', '', $bodytext);

and it turns out fine.. lol
