Hi everyone!

I am currently working on a project where I need to make a php version of a flash program we have. We have some XML files with html in them that gets placed into the flash file so new modules can be created quickly. I am working on a php version that can be opened on devices that do not have flash. The issue I am having is font size. I need to ether override the font tags or removed them from the php version. Ideally the flash files and php would pull from the same XML files. I have tried over writing the html font tags with CSS with no success. Any ideas?

Thank you,
James S.

It's going to have to be with CSS because PHP has no control over how things are displayed. In your CSS you can always define a setting as ! important and it will generally override anything that is applied to the tag/class/id.

If your trying to strip the tags before submitting the information for the browser to display you can do it a couple of ways. str_replace would be the simplest solution. Regex solution would be more complicated but more robust.

edit:::: very very crude example using a regex pattern I found with Google.

<?php
	$str1 = "<font color=blue size=10>Blue Text</font>";
	$str2 = "<font color=blue>Blue Text</font>";
	$str3 = "<font>Blue Text</font>";

	echo "<h1>Before strip</h1><br/>";
	echo $str1 . "<br/>";
	echo $str2 . "<br/>";
	echo $str3 . "<br/>";
	echo str_repeat("_", 254) . "<br/>";
	
	$str1 = preg_replace('#</?font[^>]*>#is', '', $str1);
	$str2 = preg_replace('#</?font[^>]*>#is', '', $str2);
	$str3 = preg_replace('#</?font[^>]*>#is', '', $str3);
	
	echo "<h1>After strip</h1><br/>";
	echo $str1 . "<br/>";
	echo $str2 . "<br/>";
	echo $str3 . "<br/>";
?>
