Strip HTML tag - El Forum - 04-01-2010

What is the best method to strip htnl tags from the input?
How can i remove the HTML tags while validating the input
$this->form_validation->set_rules('description', 'Description', 'trim|xss_clean');
Do I need to add custom call back method to validation rules?

No, you don't need to create a callback. To strip all HTML tags strip_tags function will help you. Something like this:
Code:
$clean = strip_tags($this->input->post('description'));Strip HTML tag - El Forum - 04-01-2010

Oh, my mistake. Yeah, you need to create a callback. Sorry ;-) Call it for example strip_html_tags.
Code:
public function strip_html_tags($s) {
return strip_tags($s);

Again problem comes here, call back function need to be return true or false not the stripped string
I have a call back function
Code:
public function html_clean($s) {
return strip_tags($s);
}and i use it like
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('customer', 'Customer', 'trim|required|callback_html_clean|xss_clean');Strip HTML tag - El Forum - 04-01-2010

try something like :
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('customer', 'Customer', 'trim|required|callback_html_clean['customer']|xss_clean');
public function html_clean($s, $v) {
$_POST[$v] = strip_tags($s);
return true;

Is it better to have a MY_Contoller method ?
Code:
class MY_Contoller
{
MY_Contoller()
{
foreach($_POST as $k=>$v)
{
$_POST[$k] = strip_tags($_POST[$k]);
}
}

Guys, are you kidding? What are $_POST or MY_Controller. Did you try my solution? Before say or ask something, you should see in the user guide.

Hey, they guy wanted a true or false solution, I gave him that.
Your solution does the trick, I know that. Don't get mad at me...

I'm not mad. As I understood, he wants to cut out all the HTML tags, not validate(TRUE/FALSE). I gave him a solution, but he didn't try it. Maybe I misunderstand something, because English is a foreign language for me.
