Using strip_tags

No error but no effect!

[henry0]

Hello to save room on a search result page
I need to strip an HTML tag: <h1>
I tried the following"
Do not get an error but has no effect on the display result.
FYI the "title" is pulled from the DB and its formatting is part of the DB data.

$title = strip_tags($title, '<h1></h1><H1><H/1>');
echo("<td valign='top'>" . "$title" . "</td>\n");

I am doing anything wrong?
thanks

I'm guessing that the forward slash is throwing the function off. Try removing the closing tags(and the uppercase versions) from the "allowable tags" parameter.

strip_tags($title, '<h1>');

Wait...I think I misunderstood. You DO want to strip out the <h1>?

The example above will strip all tags except <h1>.

strip_tags($title, '<h1>'); // strip all tags but h1

strip_tags($title); // strip all tags
