   Hi, I'm trying a fairly basic filter to prepend posts...

   function linickx_filter($content) {
   
   	// Remove Tags
   	$content_NoTags = strip_tags($content);
   
   	// Cool, get author name...
   	$author = trim(the_author_meta(display_name));
   
   	// now change the content
   	$new_content = $author . " Wrote: " . $content_NoTags;
   	$content = "<p> $new_content </p>";
   
   	return $content;
   }
   
   add_filter('the_content','linickx_filter');

   But my resulting mark-up is...

   linickx <p>Wrote: post content</p>

   Can anyone give any advise on how this is happening?

   Cheers,
   Nick
