    There is a php function can do this

    strip_tags($text);

    You can find more information here
    http://php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php

    If you still want to do this in mysql , you have to define your own function

    delimiter ||
DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS strip_tags||
CREATE FUNCTION strip_tags( x longtext) RETURNS longtext
LANGUAGE SQL NOT DETERMINISTIC READS SQL DATA
BEGIN
DECLARE sstart INT UNSIGNED;
DECLARE ends INT UNSIGNED;
SET sstart = LOCATE('<', x, 1);
REPEAT
SET ends = LOCATE('>', x, sstart);
SET x = CONCAT(SUBSTRING( x, 1 ,sstart -1) ,SUBSTRING(x, ends +1 )) ;
SET sstart = LOCATE('<', x, 1);
UNTIL sstart < 1 END REPEAT;
return x;
END;
||
delimiter ;

    Call the function in your search query after you define the function

    $q="CALL strip_tags(SELECT textarea FROM table where ....)"
