">",
"<php",
"?>",
"lanuage='javascript'",
"mysql=",
"mysql_connect_database",
"mysql_fetch_assoc",
"mysql_fetch_array",
"john"
);


$mess=explode(' ',$message);

foreach($mess as $messages){

if(in_array("$messages",$not_wanted)){



echo " \"$messages\" ";

$not_wanted=array(
"<",
">",
"<php",
"?>",
"lanuage='javascript'",
"mysql=",
"mysql_connect_database",
"mysql_fetch_assoc",
"mysql_fetch_array",
"john"

foreach($not_wanted as $go_away){

if(strpos($message,$go_away)){
	echo $go_away;
}
}

?>

 

in_array way.....

<?php
$message="my name < is john ";

$not_wanted=array(
"<",
">",
"<php",
"?>",
"lanuage='javascript'",
"mysql=",
"mysql_connect_database",
"mysql_fetch_assoc",
"mysql_fetch_array",
