1.2.1656. strip_tags() Skips Closed Tag¶
strip_tags() skips non-self closing tags. This means that tags such as <br /> will be ignored from the second argument of the function.
<?php
$input = 'a<br />';
// Displays 'a' and clean the tag
echo strip_tags($input, '<br>');
// Displays 'a<br />' and skips the allowed tag
echo strip_tags($input, '<br/>');
?>
See also strip_tags.
