Hi, I am changed simple format method and added first line code for replacing spaces for formatting in this it works but other code means new line paragraphs are not working? I want a such method which format all white spaces, new line, paragraphs. how it possible in ruby? example: def my_format(text) text.gsub!(/('' '')/, " ") text.gsub!(/(\r\n|\n|\r)/, "\n") # lets make them newlines crossplatform text.gsub!(/\n\n+/, "\n\n") # zap dupes text.gsub!(/\n\n/, ''</p>\0<p>'') # turn two newlines into paragraph text.gsub!(/([^\n])(\n)([^\n])/, ''\1\2<br />\3'') # turn single newline into content_tag("p", text) end -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
