Hi
One word of warning on using a field to strip HTML text - it's VERY
slow.
When I ran the app on a 10,000 track database, without the put/get
field, it took 80 seconds to complete, when I ran it with the put/get
field the time went up to 327 seconds!!!
Will the template field be quicker??
All the Best

Hi Richard,
Thanks to you for sharing this code snippet from Ken:
I was not using the field method (we discussed about this may be
two years ago) because, if I remember well (but it's a bit confused
in my mind), we found it had to be placed in a substack to avoid
some problem I don't even remember, etc.
But using a virtual field sounds really great :-)
Kudos to Ken to have had this illumination!
I am not so surprised...
Nevertheless, stripTags function can help because it is able to
master special tags that may be Rev just suppress...
This is for Andre :-)
I saw that Jim posted the function a bit modified.
The one used in the Rev Search Engine is, as I said, in the card's
script and is not protected then accessible by all who have Rev 2.7
of later.

Yes, I'm sure thats the function we were talking about!
Where can I get it from?
I don't know where that one resides, but when I need to strip HTML
tags from text I just set the htmlText of a field and then get the
text of that field.
Ken Ray recently discovered this works with the templateField as
well, so you don't need to rely on a physical field to do this:
function html2text pHtml
put the htmlText of the templateField into tSaveData
set the htmlText of the templateField to pHtml
get the text of the templateField
set the htmlText of the templateField to tSaveData
return it
end html2Text
