Strip Function, Not Stripping Everything?

Hi,

I have the following function which does not strip everything i need.

function StripAll($value) {
 
 	$value = preg_replace('/[\r\n\t]+/', '', $value);
	$value = preg_replace("/[rn]+[st]*[rn]+/","n",$value); 
	$value = stripslashes($value);
	$value = mysql_real_escape_string($value);
	$value = trim($value);
	$value = strip_tags($value);
	$value = str_replace(",", "", $value);
	$value = str_replace("'", "", $value);
	$value = str_replace(";", "", $value);
	$value = str_replace("&", " ", $value);
	$value = str_replace("(", " ", $value);
	$value = str_replace(")", " ", $value);

	return $value;
 
 }

PHP:

This still leaves in rn , full stops and brackets any ideas what is wrong with the function?

Cheers,
Adam

 

I haven't looked at the code in depth, but just a quick reminder: don't forget grave accents

 

i think there is a problem with regular expression there couldnt point it.
why dont you use a free class like html2txt() function
