[wp-hackers] wp_trim_excerpt

[Joost de Valk]

Hey,

I've been "fighting" a bit with my excerpts in my new theme, as I have  
the nasty habit of sometimes adding inline script tags to my posts.  
Now I found that wp_trim_excerpt does strip_tags, but it does not  
remove the content within style and script tags, even though you  
probably want it too. I've solved it like this for now:

function yoast_clean_excerpt($text) {
	if (is_home() || is_archive()) {
		$text = preg_replace('/<script type=\"text\/javascript\">([^<]+)<\/ 
script>/','',$text);
		$text = preg_replace('/<style type=\"text\/css\">([^<]+)<\/ 
style>/','',$text);		
	}
	return $text;
}
add_filter('the_content','yoast_clean_excerpt',10,1);


But I'm wondering whether wp_trim_excerpt should do that by default...  
Any opinions?

Best,
Joost
