How To Convert HTML file into a Text file

1 New Member
Hai,

I have a small task.
I have an .HTML file.
I wanted to convert .HTML file into a plain .txt file.
Means after i convert the file, the .txt file should contain only the text rather
than the HTML tags information.
If you have a solution please guild me.

Use an HTMLEditorKit and an HTMLDocument; the editor can load
the textual representation in the document and the document can return the raw
text to you. If I remember well it simply strips <br> tags (I consider that buggy)
so you might need to insert new lines back into your string for them.

kind regards,

Jos

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
