strip_tags__

Properly strip all HTML tags including script and style (default).

This differs from PHP’s native strip_tags() function because this function removes the contents of the tags. E.g. strip_tags__( '<script>something</script>' ) will return ''.

<?php

use function Qubus\Security\Helpers\strip_tags__;

strip_tags__(
    string $string,
    bool $removeBreaks = false,
    string $tags = '',
    bool $invert = false
): string;

$string (string) (required) String containing HTML tags.

$removeBreaks (bool) (optional) Whether to remove left over line breaks and white space chars.

$tags (string) (optional) Tags that should be removed.

$invert (bool) (optional) Instead of removing tags, this option checks for which tags to not remove.

(string) The processed string after the strip_tags filter has been applied.

<?php

$string = '<b>sample</b> text with <div>tags</div>';

strip_tags__($string); //returns 'text with'

strip_tags__($string, false, '<b>'); //returns '<b>sample</b> text with'

strip_tags__($string, false, '<b>', true); //returns 'text with <div>tags</div>'
