Taking out <p> tag

I need to take out a <p> tag that a wysiwyg editor keeps on adding in, tried some of the other suggestions in previous posts but it ended up not displaying the field contents! It's an email address field so I have to use the wysiwyg editor and I just want it to display 'email: and then the email address added in the field'.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Most of us don't recommend displaying raw e-mail addresses in the code of our pages. It makes it too easy for bots to harvest them.
I'd suggest using the plugin that Interactive Tools offers http://www.interactivetools.com/order/ or one of the other approaches I mention in my CMSB Cookbook www.thecmsbcookbook.com to accomplish this and save your client's a ton of grief in the form of spam.
Here's the code that I use for removing <p> tags.
<!-- remove leading <p>, do this _before_ displaying field value -->
<?PHP $record['yourfieldname'] = preg_replace("/^\s*<p>/i", "", $record['yourfieldname'] ); ?>Best,

So you just need it to link right? What about using a text field for the email and then displaying it with this code?
<a href="mailto:<?php echo $record['email']; ?>"><?php echo $record['email']; ?></a>
That should create something like this:
<a href="mailto:example@example.com">example@example.com</a>
Let me know if that works for you! :)

Jerry - I have told them about having emails on the site but they feel that they need them. We are looking into buying that spam plug in though as that would be a great thing to have with other clients.
Thanks guys! :)

Is the email plug in still available? I can't see it anywhere to buy it?
Thanks!

If you don't want any html added to your content, you can use a text box field instead of a wysiwyg field.
If that doesn't work for you, you could try the php strip_tags function:

Hope this helps.
