Anyone have a html stripper in php?

I am looking for a regular expressions function that will strip the html when I pass a variable through it. I have one for asp, but I am just making my move over to php and google has not turned one up. Just hoping that someone may have one laying around. TIA

I had a look at what "strip_tags" does and i don't quite understand..

If you assign a variable which is html does it strip the html from the variable?

So would this work?

PHP Code:


		
			
$mist = <b>Mist</b>

$mist = strip_tags($mist);

No, but this will :D

PHP Code:


		
			
$mist = "<b>Mist</b>";

$mist = strip_tags($mist);

ahhh but why the quotes?

I was once told quotes aren't needed when assigning a variable?

Quotes are needed in variables that contain strings which include spaces in them, characters such as the exclamation mark that could conflict with code syntax, or HTML, javascript, etc.

Will work:

PHP Code:


		
			
$string = "hello world";



or



$string = helloworld;



or



$string = 12342342345345;

Wont work:

PHP Code:


		
			
$string = hello world;



or



$string = 32423 234234;



or



$string = <b>helloworld</b>;



or



$string = helloworld!!!;
