Thanks in advance, and please Cc me. :) -- Dasn Can't you just call strip_tags() on the string? As you don't need to echo any attribute values, I would have thought it would be perfect. As XML is meant to be well-formed anyway, strip_tags shouldn't cause any problems with broken or missing closing tags. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk

Actually I don't want to just strip the tags, sometimes I also wanna change some elements. For another example: ablafunctionstrip_tags/functionbla/a. When output, I also want to make some change to the data depending on the tags, say, trying to append a pair of () to the function element, printing it as bla strip_tags() bla. The problem is when I processing the nodes with SimpleXML, I couldn't get the right order of the data. That is : echo $xml-a, (string) $xml-a-function . '()' // prints bla bla strip_tags() Thank you anyway. Cc please. -- Dasn -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
