# To strip/remove HTML tags from an existing string we can use the strip_tags function. | |
# import the strip_tags | |
from django.utils.html import strip_tags | |
# simple string with html inside. | |
html = '<p>paragraph</p>' | |
print html # will produce: <p>paragraph</p> | |
stripped = strip_tags(html) | |
print stripped # will produce: paragraph | |
# This is also available as a template tag: | |
{{ somevalue|striptags }} | |
# If you want to remove only specific tags you need to use the removetags | |
from django.template.defaultfilters import removetags | |
html = '<strong>Bold...</strong><p>paragraph....</p>' | |
stripped = removetags(html, 'strong') # removes the strong only. | |
stripped2 = removetags(html, 'strong p') # removes the strong AND p tags. | |
# Also available in template: | |
{{ value|removetags:"a span"|safe }} |
