Through the content management section, the user can enter data into the database. Here he can enter HTML tags and embedded CSS stylesheets also.

Is there anyway I can display only the text ? I have tried strip_tags but it does not strip the CSS entries. -- Warm Regards ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vinayak You're going to have replace all the css tags when you pull the data out...or rethink how you handle this sort of stuff in your CMS.
