function mailsystem_html_to_text in Mail System 6.2

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 8.2 html_to_text.inc \mailsystem_html_to_text()
2. 7.3 html_to_text.inc \mailsystem_html_to_text()
3. 7.2 html_to_text.inc \mailsystem_html_to_text()

Transform an HTML string into plain text, preserving the structure of the markup. Useful for preparing the body of a node to be sent by e-mail.

The output will be suitable for use as 'format=flowed; delsp=yes' text (RFC 3676) and can be passed directly to drupal_mail() for sending.

We deliberately use variable_get('mail_line_endings', MAIL_LINE_ENDINGS) rather than "\r\n".

This function provides suitable alternatives for the following tags:

<a> <address> <b> <blockquote> <br /> <caption> <cite> <dd> <div> <dl> <dt> <em> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <ol> <p> <pre> <strong> <table> <tbody> <td> <tfoot> <thead> <tr> <u> <ul>

The following tag attributes are supported:

• <a href=...>: Hyperlink destination urls.
• <li value=...>: Ordered list item numbers.
• <ol start=...>: Ordered list start number.

Parameters

$string: The string to be transformed.

$allowed_tags: (optional) If supplied, a list of tags that will be transformed. If omitted, all supported tags are transformed.

Return value

The transformed string.
