Yes, so I can do something like:

 php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
function strip_tag($text, $tag) {
    return ereg_replace('</?'.$tag.'[^>]*>', '', $text);
}
 
echo strip_tag($text, 'font');
function strip_tag($text, $tag) {
    return ereg_replace('</?'.$tag.'[^>]*>', '', $text);
}

echo strip_tag($text, 'font');

I'd still like to see if there's something tried and tested though.
