Anders Moen Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Inside a normal echo, you use just a normal <br /> don't you instead of \n?That's what I do, and it works fine.I'm not sure what you meant, but that's what you meant, right?

justsomeguy Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 This code: <?php $str = str_replace(array("\r\n","\n","\r"),"",$str);?> Will replace all line breaks in the variable $str with empty text. So that is the function call you need. Once you get the text from $_POST, use that function call to replace the line breaks in it, and use whatever variable you have instead of $str.

spamurai Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 oh right cool.. is there a way i can Remove all HTML (Dassable) andonly allow HTML Tags i say?EGDissable<iframe>but allow<BR>, <li> etc..??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Yep. Look at the examples on this page:http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spamurai Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 How would i use this? $disalowedtags = array("script", "object", "iframe", "image", "applet", "meta", "form", "onmouseover", "onmouseout"); Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Wow, the examples on the strip_tags page aren't very good for if you want to remove all tags but a few. But it looks like the syntax goes like this, for example, if you want to remove all tags, but allow <div>, <p>, and <span>:strip_tags($str, "<div><p><span>");There is another function on the page that is also useful, where it only removes the tags you want. So strip_tags removes all tags but the ones you want, and this function removes only the tags you want: function strip_selected_tags($text, $tags = array()) { $args = func_get_args(); $text = array_shift($args); $tags = func_num_args() > 2 ? array_diff($args,array($text)) : (array)$tags; foreach ($tags as $tag){ if( preg_match_all( '/<'.$tag.'[^>]*>([^<]*)<\/'.$tag.'>/iu', $text, $found) ){ $text = str_replace($found[0],$found[1],$text); } } return preg_replace( '/(<('.join('|',$tags).')(\\n|\\r|.)*\/>)/iu', '', $text); } usage: $remove_tags = array('form', 'script', 'input'); //we want to remove all form, script, and input tags$str = strip_selected_tags($str, $remove_tags); Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
