[Resolved] Creating a [list] tag?

[The Hobo]

I'm creating some sort of bbcode for one of the projects I'm working on, and am running into a bit of trouble with a [list] tag.

The list tag was supposed to look like this:

[list=#]
[*]ListItem
[/list]

Where # is the type of list.


This is what I started with:

$tags = array("/\[list=1\](.*)\[\/list\]/siU", "/\[list=2\](.*)\[\/list\]/siU", 
        "/\[list=3\](.*)\[\/list\]/siU", "/\[\*\](.*)/siU");

$html = array("<ol>\\1</ol>", "<ol type=\"a\">\\1</ol>", 
        "<ul>\\1</ul>", "<li>\\1");

$msg = preg_replace($tags, $html, $msg);

Now, since I also run nl2br() on the $msg, it replaces newlines with <br /> tags. So my list ends up looking like this:

<ol><br />
<li>Testing<br />
<li>The<br />
<li>Numbered<br />
<li>List</ol><br />

The <br />'s in there create a lot of problems with spacing and margins.

So my question is: how can I remove the newlines with my expression?

This works:

$tags = array("/\[list=1\](.*)\[\/list\]/siU", "/\[list=2\](.*)\[\/list\]/siU", 
    "/\[list=3\](.*)\[\/list\]/siU", "/\[\*\](.*)(\n\r|\r\n)/siU");

$html = array("<ol $lststyle>\\1</ol>", "<ol $lststyle type=\"a\">\\1</ol>", 
    "<ul $lststyle>\\1</ul>", "<li>\\1");

$msg = preg_replace($tags, $html, $msg);
