simple usage, no documentations

Hi all, This might sound ignorant but here it goes: My web app accepts the following: bla, bold, italics, strikethrough, underline

that's it, and of course it those can be nested. I have browsed htmlpurifier site, I cannot find any documentation to achieve this (or anything) for me to start at all?

Help me point to the right direction?

You want to use the %HTML.Allowed setting.

Great! now...how do I use it? I read the doc i saw no usage or examples.

The information on how to set configuration options is in the INSTALL documentation. Anyway, for what you describe, you want this:

$config = HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault();
$config->set('HTML', 'Allowed', 'a[href],b,i,s,u,p');
$purifier = new HTMLPurifier($config);

I added the p tag in my own discretion; otherwise users can't make paragraphs!

This is all documented in the INSTALL document.

wow, All these times I've been searching for documentation in http://htmlpurifier.org/#Docs, but it is in INSTALL. And after scouring the forums it seems that I am the only one having trouble finding it?

But this is more than enough to get me started, thanks for the prompt response Ambush Commander, *salutes*

Ah, that could certainly be a problem! I'll add a link to the INSTALL document on the webpage.

on a side note, the example above will create a fatal error, at least in my case. use $config = HTMLPurifier_Config::createDefault(); and it works like a charm!

thanks^^

Code updated. My apologies.
