Display text in the text-field

[Anon]

Dear all,

In the mysql table, the data was collected, with the text including the font, bold and italic in html format. Here is the example, stored in the variable, $text,

$text="<font size=2> <font color=red><b><i>Signal no. three is now hoisted</i></b></font></font>"

However, if I want to display in the form object, such as text-field, to be amended, it is quite strange to display the text including the <font>,<i>,<b>, Therefore, I want to remove all these codes. Please give me solution, thanks

Sincerely yours,
Simon

Hi Simson,

        Try this

         $text=strip_tags( $text );
