Thanks.

 

The function strip_tags can only strip tags enclosed within angular brackets ( < , > ).

 

Maybe you can use the following example to strip those types of tags, I'm not sure if it fully works though:

<?php
$String = "[b]Bold[/b] [u]etc.[/u]";
$String = preg_replace('|[[\/\!]*?[^\[\]]*?]|si', '', $String);
echo $String; //Returns: Bold etc.
?>

 

EDIT: Updated the code, it should work now.

its ok I want BB code just not any other kind of tags.

 

Thank you for answering my question.
