I am trying to strip all HTML and other tags from a document, I have read the docs and written a 4 line script that should do the job (from my point of view ! ). However it seems to have literally no effect. Heres the script : <? $file=readfile("http://namx.co.uk/webstats/");

$file is an array ...

if (!($string = strip_tags($file))) print "<br> error ! <br>"; $strings = strtolower($string);

.. you're trying to perform string ops on an array. Normally if you to to print() an array, you get "Array" returned.

This is not the case, I know that file() returns arrays, but i think readfile() returns a string. any other ideas ? Neil
