The problem I''m having is that if the urls are long enough to wrap, they do, but the url gets split with a <br> tag. Then, if the user clicks on the link, only the first, non-wrapped part of the link gets posted to the browser... and that''s an invalid

Hello! Is there a way to reverse the TextHelper simple_format? I.e. to take some text with <p> tags and <br> tags and convert them into line breaks in a smart way?

I''m writing a bloggish/CMSish thing. I had been using simple_format, but my users requested a rich editor, so I added TinyMCE. Anyway, I was trying to migrate the existing content (since TinyMCE assumes it''s reading HTML-formatted text), and realized that I couldn''t call simple_format (or other helper methods) from Migrations. Can someone enlighten me here?

I tried to use a before_save and use simple_format, it returns and undefined method error. Can I even use these methods within a model? I tried to use auto_link and it failed too.

Hello all, In a summary page I need to show the 1st 100 chars of textilized messages. Problem: truncate(..) would often cut in the middle of html tags => random result.
