Typography Helper
The Typography Helper file contains functions that help your format text in semantically relevant ways.
Loading this Helper
This helper is loaded using the following code:
$this->load->helper('typography');
The following functions are available:
auto_typography()
Formats text so that it is semantically and typographically correct HTML. Please see the Typography Class for more info.
Usage example:
$string = auto_typography($string);
Note: Typographic formatting can be processor intensive, particularly if you have a lot of content being formatted. If you choose to use this function you may want to consider caching your pages.
nl2br_except_pre()
Converts newlines to <br /> tags unless they appear within <pre> tags. This function is identical to the native PHP nl2br() function, except that it ignores <pre> tags.
Usage example:
$string = nl2br_except_pre($string);
