strip_tags has a lot of edge cases where it doesn't work. If you are using this on untrusted content, you'd be better off using HtmlPurifier instead.

If you want to strip all tags except for <img> tag, you can do like this:

strip_tags($your_text, '<img><a>');

The second parameter of the strip_tags function allows you to specify the allowed tags. You can specify more than one tags too.

<?php
$text = '<p>Test paragraph.</p><img>sdfsdfsdfsd</img><!-- Comment --> <a href="#fragment">Other text</a>';
echo "\n";
echo strip_tags($text, '<p><a><img>');
?>
