Description:
------------
Running the same script from the command line and in a browser generates different results. In the browser a cleaned up HTML string is returned (as expected) whereas on the CLI I get nothing.. string(0)



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$text = '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
  <head>
    <title></title>
  </head>
  <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" link="blue" vlink="purple" lang="EN-US">
    <div class="Section1">
      <h1>1. Some title</h1>
      <p><span lang="EN-GB">Some text  </span></p>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>';
$text = strip_tags($text, '<table><tr><th><td><a><ul><li><ol><p><h1><h2><h3><h4><h5><h6>');
var_dump($text);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(83) "

  
    
  
  
    
      <h1>1. Some title</h1>
      <p>Some text  </p>
    
  
"

This is printed when I run the code in a browsers. Looks ok to me.

Actual result:
--------------
string(0) ""

this is what PHP CLI prints. Doing an echo of the unstripped $text works fine, it returns the HTML. After I run the strip_tags over it though $text becomes empty it seems.
