Is there a way to remove html entities?
In a script I try to use a html page to produce a .doc file. The html page is derived from a database. Right now the html code is written as it is to the file. I would like to remove the html code and use only the basic text. Is that possible?

Yes, you can use the strip_tags functions:

<?php
$sHTML = '<p>Test paragraph.</p><!-- Comment --> <a href="#fragment">Other text</a>';
echo strip_tags($sHTML);
?>

$sHTML = '<p>Test paragraph.</p><!-- Comment --> <a href="#fragment">Other text</a>';
echo strip_tags($sHTML);
?>

I meant the output to be like it is rendered by a browser. All html code need to be removed.
