str-replace

Hello,

I have a variable like

$content = "Lorem Ipsum is simply <b>dummy text of the printing</b> and typesetting industry.
 Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's <i>standard dummy text</i> ever since the 1500s 
<string>javascriptFunc();</script>" ;

when i use str_replace('a', '', $content); all the 'a's get removed. But the 'a's within the <script> tag should not be removed.

or is there any way to replace text other than this method

Please help .
