My database contains a field which may or may not contain HTML code, 
depending on what a particular user enters when they enter the data.

Here's the challenge:

If there is HTML code in this field, then print the text with interpreted 
HTML.  No problem at all.

If there is no HTML code in the field, then I still want the data printed 
nice and neat; the users will probably use line returns to make their text 
look somewhat decent.

So, assuming that $text contains the contents of this field, then what I 
want to do is this:

         if (!HTMLin$text) then $text = nl2br($text);

What's the best way to check and see if HTML is present in the field?
