Hi Jonathon
I suggest one or more of the following three options:
1 running the markup through Tidy - http://au.php.net/tidy
(You'll have to compile PHP with Tidy - more at link above).
2 using an HTML4.0 transitional doctype for the pages that display 3rd
party markup.
3 use strip_tags to
hello all - thanks for all great suggestions
in the end, I went with a derivative of James' third idea below, and
did a little php/perl magic:
$plBody is the imported file:
$plBody = preg_replace(/br \//, ::ABBA::, $plBody);
#Convert all the br /'s to ::ABBA:: (a rather unlikly string)

#Convert all the br /'s to ::ABBA:: (a rather unlikly string)
$plBody = preg_replace(/.+?/, , $plBody);
# Drop all other HTML tags
$plBody = preg_replace(/::ABBA::/, br /, $plBody);
#Convert all the ::ABBA::'s back to

As I recall, ABBA the name of a popular band in the 70's
(http://www.abbasite.com/). Then again, there's also the American Bed
and Breakfast Association (http://www.abba.com/). Maybe you should use
_br;
You can't render a part of a page as HTML, but it is possible to let
PHP parse all pages with some variable or something like that as HTML
instead of XHTML.

good evening -
I've set up my site to serve as XHTML
alright, dumb question anyway. My original expectation on all these
includes was that the incoming file was plaintext, with only br /
replacments on newlines. A little php magic and I just dumped the
rest of the markup. Thanks for the time
