redbullmarky Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 have you actually tried just putting [url=http://uk2.php.net/strip_tags]strip_tags[/url] around the relevent part?[code]<?php// List the hotelsecho "> <div class=\"homebar2\"><h1>".$name."</h1></div><div class=\"hotel\">".$image."</div><div class=\"hotelcontent\">".strip_tags($description)."</div><h3><img src=\"".$star."\" hspace=\"2\"></h3>\n";}?>[/code]however, i have a nagging feeling that when you say 'strip tag' and 'more info button', you actually want to limit the amount of text that shows in the description, like just a summary?if so, have a look at [url=http://uk2.php.net/substr]substr[/url] as it's pretty common to use when showing a summary with a 'more' link/button.[b]ps:[/b] the open/closing php tags for no reason are caused by Dreamweaver after you've inserted several of their built-in server behaviours. if you see back to back tags, you can safely get rid of them to tidy things up a little.

redbullmarky Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 i kinda feel that the way you've presented your code there is gonna make it hard on you to get your head around. if you're gonna open/close php tags, then close PHP and use HTML in this case:[code]<?php...blahblahblah?><div class="homebar2"><h1><?php echo $name; ?></h1></div><div class="hotel"><?php echo $image; ?></div><div class="hotelcontent"><?php echo substr($description, 0, 300); ?>...</div><h3><img src="<?php echo $star; ?>" hspace="2"></h3><?php}... blahblahblah?>[/code]that'll make it a million times easier to debug/change in the future and you'll see that all i've done is added three dots right after the description is echo'dcheersMark Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/24818-strip-tag-help-please/#findComment-113083 Share on other sites More sharing options...
