No Tag Stripping

[Pyr3x]

I have a small script that prints the contents of a log on my server but it's removing tags from the output.

 

An example would be: <username> data here

 

is being printed as: data here

 

removing: <username>

 

I do not want it to strip these out of the output. How do I avoid this?

 

<?
$cmd = "tail -5 /opt/mserver/server.log";
exec("$cmd 2>&1", $output);
foreach($output as $outputline) {
print ("$outputline\n");
}
?>

I'll bet the tags are there, and you'd probably see them if you do a View ---> Source. To allow them to be displayed, rather than interpreted by the browser, use htmlentities when you echo them.

wow, thanks a lot man! I was looking all over google for this!

 

I used:

 

echo htmlentities ("$outputline\n");

 

It worked great!
