How do I make PHP not process HTML tags?

Fuzzio

Hey, I made a forum in PHP(ask for a link if you need it), and it works great. But theres one problem: If you make a new thread, you can add HTML tags to the subject line (for example <font size=10>) so when someone views the forums, they see this thread with a HUGE font.

Is there a way that I can make PHP not process HTML tags?

Thanks.

Hi,
there are two different choice:
the first one is to remove the tag with strip_tags() function.

the second one is to convert "<" with < using the htmlentities() function.

bye bye
