This:

var_dump(nl2br("aaa\naaa", false));

Outputs:

NULL

I am using PHP Version 5.2.13. Doctype is:

The second false parameter was added in PHP 5.3. Older versions of the function probably fail if passed an extra parameter they don't expect. Local experiments confirm this, the code runs fine on PHP 5.3 and fails on 5.2.10.
