Remove html tags from a string wtih PHP

Blog/PHP · 2010-11-12 · str tag remove str return str ius str return

Sometimes you don't need any formatting. That's just a nice way to remove all the html tags.

Remove all tags:

    function removeTags($str) {  
        $str = preg_replace("#<(.*)/(.*)>#iUs", "", $str);
        return $str;
    }

Remove a specific tag:

    function removeTag($str, $tag) { 
        $str = preg_replace("#\\<".$tag."(.*)/".$tag.">#iUs", "", $str);
        return $str;
    }
