ereg_replace

[Anon]

It is making me crazy.
The problem is the following. I use strip_tags($text) or
ereg_replace("<[^{<>]*>","",$text);}
to exclude all HTML tags from the $text. $text contains text of HTML files. BUT! Javascript code (which, you know, is not included into any tags and is just placed between tags "<script..." and "</script>") still remains in the result. As well as HTML comments. I don't need nether scripts not comments in the result! But I cannot write corresponding regular expression for ereg_replace - frankly speaking, I don't understand synthax really good. Tried but did not get a result :-( It would be great if you could help me.

Hello there

I recently saw someone post a problem similar to yours. I tweaked the function a little, but it's untested.

<?php

$text = "blah blah blah" // Your Text String

$start = "<script>";
$end = "</script>";

$startPos = strpos($text, $start);
$endPos = strpos($read, $end) + strlen($end);
$len = $endPos - $startPos;

$badText = substr($text, $startPos, $len);

ereg_replace($badText, " ", $text);

echo $text;

?>

Hope it helps

Yes, thanks for reminder, it really can solve the problem :-) But still, I really don't like that I'm not able to use REGEXP functions :-(
