How to Remove HTML Tags from Text

Copying content from a web page or rich email often drags along hidden HTML markup. Stripping those tags leaves clean plain text you can paste anywhere without formatting surprises.

When you need plain text

Content management systems, plain-text emails, code comments and data pipelines all work best with unformatted text. Removing tags also helps when analysing or counting the actual words on a page.

Tags vs entities

A good stripper removes elements like <p> and <div> while correctly decoding entities such as &amp; back into normal characters, so the output reads naturally.
