    Your question is not well-formed. Which programming language would you do this in? The text in your example is not consistent with the problem statement in the title of your posting. Please elaborate and reformulate. – tripleee Aug 18 '11 at 10:07

  • @shesek and Bohemian Yes absolutely, but I don't think stripping tags is parsing. – gregseth Aug 18 '11 at 13:32

To match a tag, you can use <[^>]+>, then you can use a replacement method for each matched tag, according to the language you're using.

EDIT:

With php use:

$nohtml = preg_replace("/<[^>]+>/", "", $html);

where $html is a string containing the code you want html free.
