Hi all, Following on from a previous discussion, I am trying to write a "safe" strip_tags function. I start by applying htmlentities to the entire string, and then convert "allowed" tags back. One of the steps I am looking at doing is to replace something "&lt;a href="blah" onmouseover="blah"&gt;" with "<a href="blah">" What would be a good preg_replace string for this? Preg_replace('/(&lt;A)/i', '<a', $htmlstring); Except I need to keep the href="<anything>" as well as the closing >, but drop everything else. I will be googling on this too, but a reply from this group is always quicker <g> Thanks David Russell IT Support Manager Barloworld Optimus (Pty) Ltd Tel: +2711 444-7250 Fax: +2711 444-7256 e-mail: DavidR@BarloworldOptimus.com web: www.BarloworldOptimus.com
