note 60379 deleted from function.ereg-replace by nlopess

Note Submitter: developer at cornbob dot de ---- I was searching a way to remove all html-tags in a text string, but did not find the right code segment... I have written a little bit code that removes any html-tags, changing BR-Tags in newlines. anyway, hope, it will be usefull for someone function ch_remove_html($txt='') { // call with a string // returns only txt (html tags removed) $toremove = 1; // start loop $txt = ereg_replace("<[/]?br>","\n",$txt); // change to newline $txt_size = strlen($txt); // current length while ($toremove == 1) { $txt = ereg_replace("(.*)<[/]?.*>(.*)","\\1\\2",$txt); // remove if any if ($txt_size == strlen($txt)) { $toremove=0; // if no more html tags avaiable, cancel loop } $txt_size=strlen($txt); // size after any removings } // echo $txt; return $txt; }
