From: m dot klemarczyk at live dot com Operating system: PHP version: 5.5.7 Package: Strings related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:General sugestion on the correct use function strip_tags Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.strip-tags --- I'm not opposed to the current way of using this function. I think that should also behave similarly to how JS interprets tags. This functionality can be for many people a very useful, for one simple reason, passed all structures specified tag. Test script: --------------- <?php // striptags.php $data = '<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line'; $new = strip_tags($data, '<br>'); var_dump($new); $data = '<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line'; $new = strip_tags($data, '<br/>'); var_dump($new); $data = '<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line'; $new = strip_tags($data, '<br />'); var_dump($new); $data = '<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line'; $new = strip_tags($data, array('br')); var_dump($new); $data = '<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line'; $new = strip_tags($data, array('BR')); var_dump($new); ?> Expected result: ---------------- // OUTPUTS string(21) "<br>EachNew<br />Line" // OUTPUTS string(16) "Each<br/>NewLine" // OUTPUTS string(11) "EachNewLine" // OUTPUTS string(21) "<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line" // OUTPUTS string(21) "<br>Each<br/>New<br />Line" Actual result: -------------- // OUTPUTS string(21) "<br>EachNew<br />Line" // OUTPUTS string(16) "Each<br/>NewLine" // OUTPUTS string(11) "EachNewLine" // OUTPUTS string(11) "EachNewLine" // OUTPUTS string(11) "EachNewLine" -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66299&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=66299&r=mysqlcfg
