[SOLVED] function similar to strip_tags but clearing not < and > but < and >

[ltrem]

Hey!

 

I would like to have a function that does the same thing as strip_tags but with the <> code... can't find anything helpful other than strip_tags on the intraweb! :S

 

This ->  'I am <a href="{3}">new here!' would be -> 'I am new here!'

 

Thanks alot!

what if you use http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.html-entity-decode.php before running strip_tags ?  I think that is what you are asking for
