Re: [PHP] How to strip off all html-comments From: Richard S. Crawford (rscrawford <email protected>)

Martin,

strip_tags() would be useful for removing *all* HTML from a string, though
you can specify that certain tags should be retained. For example, if you
want to remove all *but* anchor tags from your string, your function would
look like this:

         $str = strip_tags($str,'<a>');

However, if you want to remove *just* comment tags, though, you're better
off using the ereg_replace() or eregi_replace() function to remove the
comment tags, something like this:

         $str = eregi_replace("<!--[^>]*-->","",$str);

...which would be a lot easier than including every other possible tag in
the second field of the strip_tags() function.

This regexp is very similar to one that I used to remove img tags from a
string in a project I was working on.

Good luck!
