ID: 2028 Updated by: rasmus Reported By: cdi@thewebmasters.net Status: Closed Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Assigned To: Comments: You want to strip incomplete tags because you are doing it on a line-by-line basis and the tag might have been started on a previous line? Wouldn't it be easier to just concatenate your lines and do the strip_tags() once for the whole thing? Stripping incomplete tags seems like a bad idea to me and there is no way to ever get it right anyway since a tag that starts on line 1, continues on line 2 and ends on line 3 will be impossible to handle correctly.
