It seems as if strip_tags strip out everything that htmlentities would change and would therefore be unnecessary.
strip_tags() and htmlentities() both perform seperate functions (hence they have different names). htmlentities() encodes special characters, strip_tags() strips HTML from a string. One example is the following:
Original: <b>&</b>
With strip_tags applied: &
With htmlentities applied: &
It may or may not be necessary for you.
What dangerous/annoying things might happen if I did not pass the text intended for the body parameter of the mail function through htmlentities? (But, did pass it through strip_tags)
I cannot come up with anything.
