strip_tags() wont remove table tags

OniLink

I am using strip tags on text which has html tags, but for some reason it wont remove table tags (td, tr, etc.).

How can I remove them?

Thanks for any help,

Post an example of some text it won't work on, and the code you're using.

OniLink

code:

$body = strip_tags($sub_row['post']);
$body = substr($body, 0, 200);
$pos = strrpos($body, ' ');
$body = substr($body, 0, $pos + 1);
echo $body.'... ';

text eg:

table width="450" align="center" class="feature"><tr><td align="left">For those who have not heard about it, Digital Life is a consumer ...

It works for me.

$sub_row['post'] = '<table width="450" align="center" class="feature"><tr><td align="left">
                    For those who have not heard about it, Digital Life is a consumer ...';
$body = strip_tags($sub_row['post']);
echo htmlentities($body) . '<br />';

// Output:
// For those who have not heard about it, Digital Life is a consumer ...

Looks like there's a missing "<" before "table"...
