It depends on what you mean by "ignore"... Do you mean like totally getting rid of them, or converting them something like this?

PHP.net is a wonderful resource friend, i double checked myself for the correct answer here in a matter of 20 seconds.
Code: Select all
<?php
$string = "<h2>" . "hello" . "</h2>";
strip_tags($string);
?>
This code will evaluate string and remove any HTML tags, but let it be know, it also strips PHP from strings, however I believe this is what you want, otherwise, do as Oren said, ASCII safe characters I found this chart here, it should have everything you need:
