$row_rsHotels = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsHotels);
$totalRows_rsHotels = mysql_num_rows($rsHotels);

$sql="SELECT * FROM tabHotel WHERE regionId = $id";

have you actually tried just putting [url=http://uk2.php.net/strip_tags]strip_tags[/url] around the relevent part?

[code]
<?php
// List the hotels
echo "> <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.

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'd

cheers
Mark
