   I've done a few quick passes over the forum to see if anyone else has attempted anything remotely like what I'm trying to do. Alas, no. So here's the dillio:

   I'm really weird about my source code and have been hacking various functions to get their output more to my [albeit particular] liking. However, I've run across a couple of instances where I can't figure out why/how something is happening.

   1. wpautop() seems to not want to separate the closing tag sequence for p blockquote [which I can't represent here due to formatting issues]but has no problem breaking up the opening tag sequence [blockquote p]. This looks really odd to me in the source code.
   2. The order of preg_replace() calls in wpautop() seems to prevent the indention of a line that's already been broken once. This only shows up at the end of the post/excerpt. I'm no regex expert, so this is probably the hardest problem I'm facing.

   Anyone else got a clue? Thanks in advance!

   Okay. Here's some irony. The second problem, about breaking the line and not indenting was the easiest to solve. So don't worry about that one. But the blockquote/p dilemma is still in effect.

   Nevermind, kittens. I figured everything out. *rolls eyes*

   At the risk of annoying everyone...

   Why does

   $pee = str_replace('</blockquote></p>', "</p></blockquote>", $pee);

   hit the correctly nested

   </p></blockquote>

   as well?
