note 72369 added to function.strip-tags

I have used this function successfully to prevent bots inserting HTML to web forms. Put the fields' contents into an array, then feed array to this function as an argument. Returns false if HTML is included; true if there is no HTML in any of the array's values. Hope it's helpful to someone. /* Checks that there is no HTML in any of provided fields. $ary_no_html_allowed = Array to check for HTML content. */ function screenForm($ary_check_for_html){ // check array - reject if any content contains HTML. foreach($ary_check_for_html as $field_value) { $stripped = strip_tags($field_value); if($field_value!=$stripped) { // something in the field value was HTML return false; } } return true; } } ---- Server IP: 83.138.144.80 Probable Submitter: 81.137.252.251 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/72369 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/72369 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/72369 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
