html being saved in custom module's textarea

[clickstrum]

I'm working on a custom module and have only one field which is a text area. I want to be able to add one entry per line. When I save changes, however, the line break html tags, i.e. "<br/>", is saved with it.

 

Here is the textarea in my modulename_config():

 

    "fields" => array(
       "mylist" => array ("FriendlyName" => "My List", "Type" => "textarea", "Rows" => "30", "Cols" => "50", "Description" => "List of items, one per line", "Default" => "", ),
   ));

Can I have my custom module strip out html before saving? Is there a custom "save" function to use in mymodulename.php? I can't find any docs on supported functions that can be used on the admin side. I've used the addonexample module to get started, but it only shows my activate, deactivate, output, config, and upgrade. Someone point me to some docs? I see some docs for hooks, but not admin functions.

 

Thanks!

Anyone have any ideas about this?
