I've tried so many combinations of php to get wordpress to output $post->post\_content as formatted text (as opposed to the raw formatting that `echo $post->post_content` gives me. This combination seems to be the most promising, but it isn't outputting anything. Any ideas?

(it's this line: `<?php $content = apply_filters('the_content', $s->post_content); ?>`)

```
<?php query_posts('orderby=menu_order&order=asc&posts_per_page=-1&post_type=page&post_parent='.$post->ID); if(have_posts()) { while(have_posts()) { the_post(); ?>
    <div class="page">
        <?php
            global $wpdb;
            $subs = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_parent='$post->ID' AND post_type='page' AND post_status='publish'");
            if($subs) {
        ?>
        <div class="navi"></div>
        <a class="naviNext"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/navi-next.png" alt="" /></a>
        <div class="scrollable">
            <div class="items">
                <?php foreach($subs as $s) { ?>
                <div class="item">
                    <h2><?php echo $s->post_title; ?></h2>
                    <?php $content = apply_filters('the_content', $s->post_content); echo $content; ?>
                </div>
                <?php } ?>
            </div>
        </div>
        <?php } else { the_content(); } ?>
    </div>
    <?php } } wp_reset_query(); ?>

```
