I used fgetss to read and strip a regular html file which contained <title>bla bla </title>. It did not get stripped with the following: 

$buffer = fgetss($if, 4096,"<p><span><b><br><a><div>");

Seems to be fixed in CVS at least..I don't have 4.2.1 installed at the moment, but can you please try that first?

I can't find any place in the CVS diffs/logs for file.c where the fgetss() function has been changed in a long time. Where would I find the fix?

I can reproduce the bug with PHP 4.2.1.

Hay guys, I appologize about this bug report. I was mistaken. This function only strips tags, not the content of the tag. When I said it did not strip the tag, I was wrong. I does strip the title tags and nicely leaves the text that was surrounded by them. The thing is that I wanted the text to be removed and of course that won't happen with this function. Sorry for the false alarm and the time lost. I discovered this when I was looking at other HTML filters and the same thing happened of course!
