havent tried it out but with a quick glance it doesnt seem to take
into consideration fx. the tag
<TD class="tabelka01" rowspan="2" align="center">
only tags like </tag1>
but PageSpinner have a script that does in fact remove all tags
large and small :-))
The script above does indeed take care of whatever size tags you throw
at it.
The only problem is that if you are not working with a full html file,
it might choke in the text before the tag.
That is, the script above will fail in the following case:
set theText to "this <tag1>is some text</tag1> and then there's this
text followed by <tag2>and <tag3>its</tag3> contents</tag2>"
--> "is some text and then there's this text followed by and its
contents"
This script is fast and takes care of the problem above:
<script>
set theText to "this is <tag1>some text</tag1> and then there's this
text followed by <TD class=\"tabelka01\" rowspan=\"2\"
align=\"center\">and <tag3>its</tag3> contents</tag2>"
set {od, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text
item delimiters, "<"}
set {newText, theText, j, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {text
item 1 of theText, rest of text items of theText, length of rest of
text items of theText, ">"}
repeat with l from 1 to j
set newText to newText & text item 2 of (item l of theText)
end repeat
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to od
newText
-->"this is some text and then there's this text followed by and its
contents"
</script>
