the user copy this line from another site :

" this is sample text of the admin copy and paste "

But becuse i provided him with rich text era format when he copy and paste the text into the insertion form the text inserted into the data base as following :

this is sample text of the admin copy and paste

i diplay this text in the home page and i need to display it without any format ..... i want it just a plain text .... want to display it like this :

" this is sample text of the admin copy and paste "
