Question

I want to convert

<p>Code is following</p>
<pre>
&lt;html&gt;<br>&lt;/html&gt;
</pre>

to

<p>Code is following</p>
<pre>
&lt;html&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;
</pre>

I don’t know how to write regular expression for replace between pre tag in PHP.

I tried this code Replace newlines with BR tags, but only inside PRE tags

but it’s not working for me.

Answer 1

Which answer are you using code from?

Assuming it was the accepted answer, just reverse the preg_replace() line as follows;

$parts[$idx] = preg_replace('#<br\s*/?>#', "\n", $part);
