stripping the &quot;table&quot; tag?

stripping the "table" tag?

well I can do str_replace on <table> but how do I do a replace on
<table cellpadding=0 ...>?

You're going to have to read up on regular expressions and then use [man]preg_replace[/man]

I took this code

$row['3'] = preg_replace( "/(?<!<a href=\")((http|ftp)+(s)?:\/\/[^<>\s]+)/i", "<a href=\"\\0\">\\0</a>", $row['3'] );

and that works but I tried to change it to

$row['3'] = preg_replace( "/(?<!<table=\")((cellpadding|cellspacing|border|align)+(s)?:\/\/[^<>\s]+)/i", "", $row['3'] );

But it doesn't work

if you want to get rid of the whole tag use

$new = preg_replace("/<table[^>]*>/i", "", $oldhtml);
$new = preg_replace("/<\/table>/i", "", $new);

thanks
