HI

 

I'm using strip_tags() to strip <b><br /><i> out of my content.

However, Its not working.

 

Can anyone see any problems?

 

$desc2 = stripslashes(nl2br($row2['ptxt_body']));
$desc3 = htmlentities($desc2);

<textarea name="description" cols="40" rows="7" wrap="PHYSICAL" id="description">'.strip_tags($desc3, '<b><br /><i>').'</textarea>

 

heres the:

http://www.telegraphlondon.co.uk/text_upload2.php

 

As you can see, the text inside the 'textarea' still has <br />.

 

Can anyone see why?

 

 

Thanks for your advice.

Hi Thanks for taking a look for me.

 

Here is the full page code

<?php
session_start();

include('dbconnect.php');
$user = $_SESSION['usname'];
$pass = $_SESSION['pword'];

	$sql = "SELECT * FROM admin_users WHERE admin_usname='$user' && admin_pword='$pass'";
	$select_query = mysql_query($sql) or die ('error1');
	$count = mysql_num_rows($select_query);
	$row = mysql_fetch_array($select_query);
	$id = $row['admin_id'];

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
if ($_POST['title'] == '')
		$arrError['title'] = 'Please add your TITLE';
		$star_1 = '<img src="London-Clubs-GFX/london-clubbing-1.jpg"';
if ($_POST['description'] == '')
		$arrError['description'] = 'Please add your TEXT';
		$star_2 = '<img src="London-Clubs-GFX/london-clubbing-1.jpg"';

if (count(arrError==0)){

		$sql1="SELECT * FROM page_text WHERE ptxt_id='1'";
		$result1 = mysql_query($sql1) or die ('Could not connect');
		$count1 = mysql_num_rows($result1);
		$row1 = mysql_fetch_array($result1);

if ($count1==0) {

$title=addslashes($_POST['title']);
$description=addslashes($_POST['description']);
$page = $_POST['page'];
$date = date('Y.m.d');

$sql = "INSERT INTO page_text (ptxt_title, ptxt_body, ptxt_page, ptxt_date) VALUES ('$title', '$description', '$page', '$date')";
$query = mysql_query($sql) or die (mysql_error());


if ($query){
$inserted = '<span class="pro_guide_text">Your new information has been added<br></span>';
}else{
$insert_error = '<span class="pro_guide_text">Sorry, There has been an error</span>';
}
}

}else{
	if (empty($title) || empty($description)){
		$strError = '<div class="pro_guide_text">';
			foreach($arrError as $error) {
			$strError .= '$error';
			}
		$strError .= '</div>';
	}
}
}

?>

$desc2 = stripslashes(nl2br($row2['ptxt_body']));
$desc3 = htmlentities($desc2);

<textarea name="description" cols="40" rows="7" wrap="PHYSICAL" id="description">'.strip_tags($desc3, '<b><br /><i>').'</textarea>

 

 

 

OK the htmlentities will convert >  to > etc so it will always fail.. also the stripslashes will remove the / so <br /> will fail
