Thanks Skrol for your input on all my openTBS issues, just noticed that you are the creator of it, its a great class and what you said above was true after a day of plowing through learning the MS Word Format i had a brain wave and I am now able to produce the format that you specified above and can have bold italic and underline which is all i require, I hope this gives you a foundation to improve upon.

I basically noticed that in the example you put you just need an array of the styles which when you find a closing tag you remove from the style array. Each time you find a tag you need to close the and create a new one, I have tested it and it works wonderfully.

class printClass {
    private static $currentStyles = array();    

    public function __construct() {}

    public function format($string) {
            if($string !=""){
            return preg_replace_callback("#|||||#",
                                        'printClass::replaceTags',
                                        $string);
        }else{
            return false;
        }
    }


    private static function applyStyles() {

        if(count(self::$currentStyles) > 0 ) {

            foreach(self::$currentStyles as $value) {

                if($value == "b") {
                    $styles .= "";
                }   

                if($value == "u") {
                    $styles .= "";
                }   

                if($value == "i") {
                    $styles .= "";
                }
            }

            return "" . $styles . "";
        }else{
            return false;
        }
    }



    private static function replaceTags($matches) {

        if($matches[0] == "") {
            array_push(self::$currentStyles, "b");
        }   

        if($matches[0] == "") {
            array_push(self::$currentStyles, "u");
        }   

        if($matches[0] == "") {
            array_push(self::$currentStyles, "i");
        }

        if($matches[0] == "") {
            self::$currentStyles = array_diff(self::$currentStyles, array("b"));
        }   

        if($matches[0] == "") {
            self::$currentStyles = array_diff(self::$currentStyles, array("u"));
        }   

        if($matches[0] == "") {
            self::$currentStyles = array_diff(self::$currentStyles, array("i"));
        }

        return "" . self::applyStyles() . "";
    }
}
