strip-tags(function)

Build Status Coverage Status

This is a port of the PrototypeJS method stripTags. It strips a string of any HTML 4.01 tags — like div, span, and abbr. It will not, however, strip namespace-prefixed tags such as h:table or xsl:template. Nor will it remove any content from within <script> tags. Lastly, while stripTags is good enough for most purposes, it shouldn't be relied upon for security purposes. If processing end-user supplied content, stripTags is not sufficiently robust enough to ensure that the content is completely devoid of HTML tags in the case of an end-user who's intentionally trying to circumvent a tag restriction.

Installation

npm install @ramumb/strip-tags

Usage

var stripTags = require('strip-tags');

stripTags('a <a href="#">link</a>');
// -> 'a link'

stripTags('a <a href="#">link</a><script>alert("hello world!");</script>');
// -> 'a linkalert("hello world!");'

stripTags('<xsl:template match="/"><html><body><h2>My CD Collection</h2><xsl:apply-templates/></body></html></xsl:template>');
// -> '<xsl:template match="/">My CD Collection<xsl:apply-templates/></xsl:template>'
