[PHP-DB] Retrieve HTML from db
Hi there...I have a db filled with various HTML code examples, tags, etc... how would I format it so that it would appear like A href='index.php'Link One/a. I was using the strip_tags() function and quickly found out that this wasn't the best way to do it :) Cheers, Joe:) -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP-DB] Retrieve HTML from db
* You could cheat and wrap anchor tags around the DB content you want to display as a hyperlink * If you know which variable from the DB you wish to be displayed as a link then: $variable = a href=\yourpage.php\$variable/a; HTH :-) Russ On Tue, 20 Nov 2001 11:54:25 -0400 Joe Van Meer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi there...I have a db filled with various HTML code examples, tags, etc... how would I format it so that it would appear like A href='index.php'Link One/a.

Try htmlentities() or htmlspecialchars(), which is what I use.
