It's quite useful for the most part, saves alot of time and effort trying to filter out tags. I use it when users submit quotes from various people. <?php> $quotedName = strip_slashes($_POST['quotedName'],""); $quote = strip_slashes($_POST['quoteEntry'],""); $submitter = strip_slashes($_POST['submitter'],""); echo '<p>'.$quotedName.'</p>'; echo '<p>'.quote.'</p>'; echo '<p>'.submitter.'</p>'; ?> Only difference with my code is it puts it into a database, but it's quite useful to stop spammers. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38715 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38715&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38715&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
