use the strip_tags()it delivery actual output what we expected ,string strip_tags ( string $str [, string $allowable_tags ] )
This function tries to return a string with all NULL bytes, HTML and PHP tags stripped from a given str. It uses the same tag stripping state machine as the fgetss() function.
Parameters
str : The input string.
allowable_tags : You can use the optional second parameter to specify tags which should not be stripped.
$tag=" <movie service='craftsman-1.0'><body><stack><sequence><effect type='sliding' duration='5.0'><image filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/Canyon_Chelly_Navajo.jpg'/><image filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/Ha_long_bay.jpg'/><image filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/Monument_Valley.jpg'/></effect><effect type='none'><video filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/footage.mov' audio='false'/></effect></sequence><text type='zone' align='center,center'>Hello World</text><audio filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/george_woods_lucky_one.mp3' skip='5.0'/></stack><text type='zone' align='center,center'> Thanks for watching!</text></body></movie>";
echo strip_tags($tag);
echo "\n";
echo strip_tags($tag, '<movie><body><stack><sequence><effect><image><video><text><audio>');
the output is
<movie service='craftsman-1.0'><body><stack><sequence><effect type='sliding' duration='5.0'><image filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/Canyon_Chelly_Navajo.jpg'/><image filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/Ha_long_bay.jpg'/><image filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/Monument_Valley.jpg'/></effect><effect type='none'><video filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/footage.mov' audio='false'/></effect></sequence><text type='zone' align='center,center'>Hello World</text><audio filename='http://s3.amazonaws.com/stupeflix-assets/apiusecase/george_woods_lucky_one.mp3' skip='5.0'/></stack><text type='zone' align='center,center'> Thanks for watching!</text></body></movie>
