i posted some data using tinymce (in a symfony project).while retrieving back how can i remove html tags? strip_tags not working..
The easies way is to use strip_tags but it's not very reliable. There is a very, very, VERY good project design specifically for this: HTML Purifier.
It battle-hardened, tested and very good. strip_tags is the easy, fast and go way, but it can miss out some malformated html that a browser will actually parse and execute.
Please, don't use regular expression to parse html!
