I just upgraded a site that has a custom page that allows for customers to "build" a customized product and then add it to their cart. It all works great after the upgrade with one exception. When the page is processed, this bit of code is used for the product description:

$product_desc = "<br>Box Type: ".$box_type."<br>Pre-assemble: ".$assem_sel."<br>Finish: ".$finish_sel."<br>".$nfs_desc."<br>Include Bracket: ".$ib_sel."<br>Bottom thickness: ".$bottom_thick_sel."<br>Dimensions - Height: ".$height." ".$h_f."<br>Width: ".$width." ".$w_f."<br>Depth: ".$depth." ".$d_f;
In the old site (1.3.8a), that text was output correctly everywhere. In the new site (1.3.9h), it is formatted correctly in the shopping cart, but on the order detail page, invoice, and packing slip, the <br> tags show up.

I did try changing them to <br />, but that just made the <br /> show up in the shopping cart as well, so it actually made things worse.

I realize I am asking about custom code that is not standard to Zen-Cart, but I am hoping someone will know what has changed in Zen-Cart to cause this not to display correctly anymore.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
